Super Eagles player Leon Balogun's ban reduced to 2 games, to pay €10,000 fine for violent conduct

The German Football Association has reduced the ban of Super Eagles player Leon Balogun from 3 games to 2 games after his club, Mainz, appealed his punishment for violent conduct in the 2-1 defeat  to Eintracht Frankfurt.

Balogun deliberately used his knee to hit Frankfurt's Carlos Zambrano in the closing stages of the match but the incident was missed by the referee which prompted the German FA to act and ban him for 3 games but after a successful appeal by the player and his club the ban has been reduced to 2 games.
