UEFA have charged Marseille defender Patrice Evra with violent conduct after a scuffle between the player and a club supporter before a Europa League game at Vitoria Guimaraes in Portugal, European footballโs governing body said on Friday.
Evra was sent off after he appeared to aim a kick at a fanโs head at the side of the pitch during the warm-up at the Afonso Henriques stadium.
The 36-year-old will be banned for at least one match, with the UEFA Control, Ethics and Disciplinary Body to rule on the incident on Nov. 10.
Marseille have also been charged by UEFA with a field invasion by supporters, setting off of fireworks and โacts of damagesโ during their 1-0 defeat in Portugal.
