NASHVILLE, TN - Things got heated in Music City during Nashville SC's 1-0 win over Philadelphia Union.
Jonny Pérez was sent off in the 63rd minute after a high boot unintentionally caught Tai Baribo on the side of the head. He'll serve his single-match suspension during Saturday's trip to Inter Miami, and when he returns he'll still be a single yellow card away from another suspension.
The MLS Disciplinary Committee has fined Pérez for failing to leave the field in a timely manner after the sending off. Additionally, they have found both clubs in violation of the Mass Confrontation Policy. As this is the first violation for both clubs, official warnings have been issued to head coaches BJ Callaghan and Bradley Carnell.
In addition, the Disciplinary Committee has fined Nashville's Jeisson Palacios, Hany Mukhtar and Patrick Yazbek, along with Philadelphia's Kai Wagner, Olivier Mbaizo and Indiana Vassilev. All six players have been fined an undisclosed amount.
