Suspension threatens! Rainbow scandal involving Glasner’s captain
There's a lot of excitement in the English Premier League: because Marc Guehi, the captain of Crystal Palace, scribbled a message on his captain's ribbon, Oliver Glasner's protégé is now even facing a ban.
To make a statement against homophobia in sport, the captains of all Premier League teams wore a rainbow captain's ribbon last weekend. The one worn by Marc Guehi during the 1:1 draw against Newcastle United also had "I love Jesus" written on it. Now the 24-year-old is in big trouble!
The devout Christian could be banned by the English Football Association (FA). "It is a serious possibility being considered by the FA," report the Daily Mail and ESPN about the fuss surrounding the England international. Political, religious and personal statements are banned.
Basement duel with Ipswich Town
On Tuesday evening (20:30/live in the sportkrone.at ticker), Guehi and Co. will face Ipswich Town in the basement duel.
It will be interesting to see whether the excitement surrounding the captain will rattle Glasner's squad. In any case, a defeat would be a major setback in the relegation battle.
