The Royal Spanish Football Federation issued a two-game ban to Real Madrid midfielder Jude Bellingham for verbally abusing a referee, the governing body for soccer in the country announced Wednesday.

Jude Bellingham faces a lengthy suspension after referee José Munuera Montero handed him a straight red card for dissent against Osasuna.

Jude Bellingham has been handed a two-game ban after his red card in Real Madrid's 1-1 LaLiga draw at Osasuna on Saturday was upheld by the Spanish football federation's disciplinary committee.
