Ibra banned for 3 games

Manchester United striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic will miss the FA Cup quarterfinal at Chelsea after accepting a charge of violent conduct and an immediate three-match ban, England's Football Association said Tuesday.

Both Ibrahimovic and Bournemouth defender Tyrone Mings were charged on Monday following two incidents in Saturday's bad-tempered 1-1 Premier League draw.

Mings appeared to deliberately stamp on Ibrahimovic's head as he jumped over him late in the first half at Old Trafford and the Swedish striker seemed to retaliate moments later by elbowing the defender in the head.
