The MFA Disciplinary Council yesterday suspended three Premier players a match each. These are Floriana’s Brian Sain, Qormi’s Massimo Grima and Tarxien’s Gianluca Calabretta.

Balzan’s Glenn Tanti was suspended for four matches, Simon Shead, Clayton Caruana and Miguel Francica for two and rennie Forace for one match.

Mosta’s Jonathan Debono, Kane Farrugia and Bryan Agius received a two-match ban.
