Mason Greenwood receives suspended ban following incident in Champions League qualifier
Summary

Fenerbahce forward Mason Greenwood has been issued a one-game suspended ban and a €30,000 fine following a brawl during his club’s 2-1 Champions League qualifying victory over Lyon. The incident occurred at the final whistle and involved multiple players and staff members. According to reports, the confrontation was sparked by Matteo Guendouzi, while Greenwood was cited for making an indecent gesture toward opposing supporters. The European governing body sanctioned the player for violating conduct regulations. This disciplinary action marks the latest controversy for Greenwood, who moved to the Turkish club this summer after previous stints at Getafe and Marseille. The suspension remains suspended for one year, meaning it will only be activated if he commits further infractions during that period.
