Leipzig’s Halstenberg suspended for two cup games

Cup winners RB Leipzig will have to do without Marcel Halstenberg in two DFB Cup games next season.

The German Football Association issued a corresponding sanction against the 30-year-old, who saw the red card in the 57th minute of this year’s final against SC Freiburg after an emergency brake.

RB won the final in the Olympic Stadium 4-2 on penalties.
