He was shown a yellow card in the 43rd minute for stopping a Parma counter attack, and will now have to serve a one match suspension in the next league game, which happens to fall against Simone Inzaghi’s title-chasing Inter.

The scores were level at 1-1 at the time of Fofana’s yellow. The Rossoneri fell behind to a Matteo Cancellieri goal after 24 minutes, but Christian Pulisic levelled the tie from the penalty spot with 38 minutes on the clock.
