Southampton appeal Sadio Mane’s red card at Stoke

Southampton’s appeal against Sadio Mane’s red card will be heard by the Football Association this afternoon.

The Saints appealed against the red card shown to Mane during Saturday’s 2-1 Premier League victory at Stoke.

Referee Lee Mason gave the forward a straight red card during the first minute of second-half stoppage time when he caught Stoke’s Erik Pieters in mid-air having mistimed a jump to challenge for the ball.
