Warned at the end of the match in Angers last Saturday, Marquinhos will be suspended for PSG/Toulouse on the 12th day of Ligue 1. Anything but bad news for the Brazilian and PSG.
While PSG quietly led 4-0 in Angers, before conceding two goals in added time, Marquinhos was booked in the 82nd minute for a gross foul on an Angers player. A deserved yellow card which will have the consequence of depriving the Brazilian captain of the next Ligue 1 match against Toulouse on November 22.
The LFP disciplinary committee will indeed meet this Wednesday and note that Marquinhos has received his third warning over a period of 10 matches on the national scene after his yellows received against Lens (J10) and Nice (J7). As a result, Marquinhos will be suspended for one match and his sanction will apply from next Tuesday, November 19.
Marquinhos will be able to rest a little before Bayern / PSG
Marquinhos will therefore be suspended for the reception in Toulouse on Friday November 22 and this is actually rather good news since the Brazilian must play with Brazil on the night of Tuesday November 19 to Wednesday November 20 against Uruguay in the framework qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup. A high-stakes match (the two countries have 16 points) which will be played at 1:45 a.m. French time, against Salvador de Bahia.
The Parisian captain will therefore not have to rush to return from Brazil and will be able to calmly prepare for the clash against Bayern Munich in the Champions League on November 26. From there to saying that Marquinhos deliberately took a yellow card against Angers on Saturday, there is only one step even if we can imagine that if he had not been suspended, Luis Enrique would have Either way, let's take a breather against Toulouse.
In any case, this is what the Spanish coach did after the September break against Brest and after the October break against Strasbourg. Each time, Milan Skriniar was lined up in place of Marquinhos, who had played a few days earlier with Brazil.
