Sunderland Lodged appeal on Sessegnon red card

The Football Association say Sunderland have formerly lodged a claim for unfair dismissal following the red card for Stephane Sessegnon at Aston Villa.


The 28-year-old Benin international will have his case heard by an independent regulatory commission on Wednesday afternoon. Sessegnon was sent off with 21 minutes of the game remaining by referee Lee Probert during Monday night's 6-1 Premier League defeat at Villa Park for a foul on Yacoub Sylla...The tackle wasn't very serious though but the referee didn't hesitate showing him the color of his jersey due to the tempo of the game.

I hope his not denied like Olivier Giroud.
