#4 Ban on the cards for Dharmaraj Ravanan

FC Pune City's manager Antonio Habas just returned from a ban and now one of their players will probably be getting banned soon. Pune defender Dharmaraj Ravanan was clearly seen stamping Chennaiyin FC striker Dudu Omagbemi in the second half of the match and action could be taken against him.

Even though the referee called a foul, he hadn't seen the incident properly and hence didn't give a red card to Ravanan. FC Pune City were lucky to finish the game with eleven as the 29-year-old player should have been clearly sent off for the stamp.

It does lead to question as to why players still decide to do such acts when there are TV cameras broadcasting every single incident in the game. Ravanan might have been lucky on the night but Pune City do not need any more trouble after their stuttering start to the season.
