MLS Investigates FC Cincinnati's Matt Miazga for Unauthorized Entry into Referee's Locker Room Post-Game

Miazga's altercation over yellow cards accrual leads to a one-match suspension, as talks heighten about his alleged aggressive behavior after unauthorized entry into referee's locker room.

FC Cincinnati's Matt Miazga was reportedly forcibly removed after illegally gaining access to the referee's locker room following the team's win against the New York Red Bulls.
The Professional Soccer Referees Association (PSRA) described Miazga's behavior as aggressing and hostile, calling for Major League Soccer (MLS) to act on the incident.
Disagreements surfaced regarding the characterization of the incident, with sources arguing that Miazga left the locker room with a member of Cincinnati's staff, not stadium security.
Miazga's attempt to enter the locker room was reportedly to discuss with referee Victor Rivas about the yellow cards he received during the game, leading to his suspension in the upcoming match due to the accumulation of 3 yellow cards.
Miazga's suspension resulted from a yellow card issued for arguing about a negated goal, a yellow card given for a spot kick in the penalty shootout coupled with a previously received yellow card.
