Winger Schalke Eugene Konoplyanka received a straight red card in the home match of the second round of the Bundesliga against Hertha.

Then the Ukrainian tore off the counter-attack of the guests already in the time added to the second half, depriving the opponent of the obvious scoring opportunity.

According to the official website of Schalke, Linnet will only miss one match. In making this decision, the disciplinary commission took into account the fact that this free-kick was an assist for Hertha.

The player and the club agreed with the verdict.

Thus, Eugene can not help the "Cobalt" in a duel against Borussia Monchengladbach, but will return to the lineup for the match against Bavaria in the fourth round.
