MHSC defensive midfielder Damien Le Tallec was suspended four games on Wednesday by the disciplinary committee of the Professional Football League (LFP) after his exclusion on Sunday against Reims.

The 30-year-old was excluded in the 42nd minute for an involuntary kick on a player from Reims during the heavy defeat in Hérault at the Stade de la Mosson (4-0), in Montpellier (Hérault).

He apologized on Twitter for "this uncontrolled gesture".

First red of my career ... sorry for this unmanaged gesture, the MHSC team and family 😔 very bad day ...
