    Bayern Munich's Franck Ribery will miss Bayern's next three European matches after receiving a three-match ban for assault.

    The Frenchman was shown a straight red for stamping on the leg of Lyon's Lisandro Lopez during Bayern's 1-0 victory.

    Ribery will now miss the final in Madrid where Bayern will meet Inter after their impressive performance against Barcelona.

    ^ No that's a Barca guy from last nights game with Inter.


    About Ribery, it's really bad what UEFA did, since he went for the ball and hit the guy's leg, but it wasn't from behind, so it shouldn't have even been a red card, let alone a suspension of 3 games. :(
