US EditionJobe Bellingham Banned for 2 Dortmund Games After Red Card
Bellingham was banned for unsporting behaviour after a foul that halted a clear scoring chance, sidelining him for two Bundesliga matches, including a key fixture on January 9.
- On Monday, Jobe Bellingham was handed a two-match Bundesliga ban following his red card for a foul on Philipp Treu in the 53rd minute against Freiburg.
- After Dortmund goalkeeper Gregor Kobel's error left Philipp Treu through, the German football federation's sports court on Monday ruled Bellingham's foul as `unsporting behaviour`.
- The 20-year-old is the younger brother of Jude Bellingham and has drawn attention for his pedigree, featuring in all 23 Borussia Dortmund games this season but starting only 10 and scoring no goals.
- Given the suspension, Dortmund will be without Bellingham for the next two league matches, ruling him out of Friday's game against Borussia Moenchengladbach and the January 9 trip to Eintracht Frankfurt.
- The timing comes amid an up-and-down start to Bellingham's Dortmund career as Sunday's dismissal coincided with Sunderland beating Newcastle in the Tyne-Wear derby.
