Mbappe loses appeal against 3-match ban

-

World Cup star Kylian Mbappe will sit out one further league game for Paris St-Germain after losing an appeal against a three-match suspension on Monday.

Mbappe, 19, was handed the sanction for lashing out in retaliatio­n at Teji Savanier during a feisty 4-2 win at Nimes on September 1.

Savanier was handed a four-match ban for his role in the incident, a sanction that was also confirmed following appeals by both players, the French Football Federation (FFF) announced.

Mbappe has served two of his three matches so far.
