Serie A leaders AC Milan's Swedish striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic was ruled out on Monday of their crucial derby with Inter Milan as he was handed a three match suspension for his red card in last weekend's match with Bari.
- Ibrahimovic sent off as Milan falter (13 Mar 11)
Milan - who lead defending champions Inter by five points - have appealed the decision and it will be heard on either Thursday or Friday this week, though, most observers feel they have little chance of winning it.
Should the decision be upheld then Milan will have to do without their leading scorer - he has scored 14 goals in Serie A this season - for not only the derby match but also next Saturday's away to Palermo and against Fiorentina.
Ibrahimovic's coach Massimiliano Allegri, suggested after the match that it may be the tall Swede's recent dry spell in front of goal that got to him.
"He has to stay calm, these periods can happen, he shouldn't get annoyed because he hasn't scored for a month, he's giving a lot."

Överklaga (verb) = appeal against
One day maybe your journalists will manage to get this right.
"It's "appeal AGAINST" the decision in English"
WRONG.
In English You appeal TO the court to change the judgement handed down by that or a lower court.
The appeals procedure originally was an appeal to the King to grant pardon in a criminal case usually in the case where a death sentence has been handed down.
