Salley facing two-match ban

Updated December 13, 2011 23:33:11

Gold Coast United midfielder Jonas Salley faces a two-match ban for his challenge on Sydney FC striker Dimitri Petratos during Sunday's A-League clash at Skilled Park.

The Ivory Coast-born 29-year-old was offered the suspension after the Match Review Panel (MRP) ruled on Tuesday the offence was "serious foul play" and worthy of suspension.

Gold Coast has until midday on Wednesday to appeal the ban, or Salley will miss the bottom-placed club's clashes against Adelaide United and Brisbane Roar.

The minimum sanction for the offence of serious foul play is one match.
