PSG: Luis Enrique did not like Lucas Hernandez's gesture

After reducing the suspension of Luis Diaz (excluded after his tackle from behind on Achraf Hakimi), UEFA also showed leniency with Lucas Hernandez. Sent off against Tottenham for elbowing Xavi Simons in the face, the Paris Saint-Germain defender was suspended for three matches. This Friday, UEFA reduced the sanction to two matches.

“The appeal lodged by Paris Saint-Germain is upheld. Accordingly, the decision of the UEFA Control, Ethics and Disciplinary Body of 3 December 2025 is amended as follows: suspend Paris Saint-Germain player, Lucas Hernández, for a total of two (2) UEFA club competition matches for which he would otherwise be eligible, for assaulting another player.we can read on the official UEFA website. Hernandez will therefore be available for the final match of the league stage against Newcastle.
