PSG star Ibrahimovic cops two-game ban for Valencia red

Zlatan Ibrahimovic will miss two European matches after UEFA banned him for two matches.

The Paris-Saint Germain striker was sent off in injury-time of his clubs 2-1 win over Valencia in the Champions League Round of 16 first leg on February 12.

Ibrahimovic's challenge on Andres Guardado was deemed reckless enough for him to be shown a red card and handed an automatic one-game ban but UEFA has extended that to two meaning he will miss the quarter-final first leg provided PSG get through.
