Equi Fernández Sent Off on Leverkusen Debut in 3-1 Win Over Frankfurt

The dismissal leaves Kasper Hjulmand short in midfield for the next match.

Overview

  • The 23-year-old entered in the 62nd minute to reinforce midfield after Robert Andrich had been sent off.
  • Referee Deniz Aytekin issued Fernández a first yellow at 78 minutes for gesturing following a non-call near the touchline.
  • A sliding challenge on Fares Chaibi in second-half stoppage time brought a second caution at 90+2 and a red card on debut.
  • Leverkusen finished with nine men yet secured a 3-1 home victory over Eintracht Frankfurt.
  • The red card brings a suspension as Exequiel Palacios exited early with a muscle issue and Claudio Echeverri remained unused.
