Paqueta warned but avoids extra ban for dissent

What happened: West Ham midfielder Lucas Paqueta received a warning from the FA but will not face an extended suspension after his reaction to being sent off in the match against Liverpool.

Why it matters:

  • Paqueta remains available for selection without further suspension.
  • The decision highlights the FA's approach to managing player conduct post-dismissal.

MNN Take: The FA reviewed Paqueta's behaviour following his red card but decided a warning was sufficient, allowing him to continue playing without additional penalty.
