Guardiola was suspended for two matches

Josep Guardiola, the head coach of Manchester City, has been suspended for two matches due to disagreements with referees during the England Cup match against Newcastle. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

In the match held at St. James' Park stadium, Guardiola was displeased with Newcastle defender Kieran Trippier's rough action against Manchester City forward Jeremy Doku and argued with the fourth official. Following this incident, the main referee showed Guardiola a yellow card.

This is his sixth warning of the current season, and according to the rules, the coach will be suspended for two matches. This penalty applies to Premier League and England Cup matches.

Therefore, Guardiola will not be able to directly manage his team from the sidelines in the championship game against West Ham and in the England Cup quarter-final. However, he may be present at his position in the League Cup final on March 22, as the suspension does not affect the internal cup final.

Guardiola took the situation humorously, saying that he has broken all records with Manchester City and has now become the coach with the most yellow cards. "I want all the records and I have achieved this one as well.

Now I will rest for two matches," he said. He also emphasized that he will continue to defend his players in any situation and that some referee decisions are difficult to understand.
