Southampton's Jack Stephens Fined and Banned for Abusive Language Toward Officials

The defender will miss two additional games following his red card against Manchester United.

Jack Stephens received a £50,000 fine and a two-game ban for using abusive language towards officials during a match against Manchester United.
Stephens was sent off in the 79th minute for a high challenge on Alejandro Garnacho in Southampton's 3-0 loss.
The Southampton captain admitted to directing offensive language at both referee Stuart Attwell and fourth official Gavin Ward.
Stephens apologized for his behavior, acknowledging that it was below the standard expected of him as a captain and role model.
He will miss Southampton's upcoming matches against Arsenal and Leicester City, having already served a three-game suspension for the red card.
