MARCELO could be hit with an extra one-game ban for his comments towards an official after being sent off for Real Madrid.
The Brazil veteran, 33, was shown a straight red card after bringing down Tete Morente in extra-time of the Spanish Cup tie against Elche.
Marcelo was adjudged to have prevented a clear goal-scoring opportunity and given his marching orders.
But his comments towards referee Jorge Figueroa Vazquez could land him in further trouble.
Spanish reports claim that the Real Madrid star told the official “you are very bad” after being sent off.
And former referee Iturralde Gonzalez thinks there could be more punishment headed Marcelo’s way.
He told AS that Marcelo would be given “a penalty match for the red, which Madrid could appeal (the images seem to show that Marcelo does not touch Fidel), and another for ‘you are very bad ‘.”
Elche star Morente was also involved in a ‘ghost tackle’ that saw Toni Kroos booked.
