Rafa Yusti, the vice president of FC Barcelona, commented on the duration of Kylian Mbappe's suspension after his red card in the match against Deportivo Alaves for a foul on Antonio Blanco.

The French star was suspended for only one match in La Liga.

Yusti stated: "The duration of Mbappe's suspension? It is an absurd and meaningless decision; it was an extremely violent foul that could have caused a tear or serious injury. The decision is completely disproportionate."

He added: "Imagine if the foul had been committed by a Barcelona player, which won't happen because our players are professionals; I don't know what would have happened to him."

He concluded by criticizing Mbappe for his foul: "If someone loses their temper like that, it's unfair and confirms that we need to do things perfectly so we don't rely on anyone. Because this is a bad example for football. It's shameful."
