Suspended, Zubeldía misses Fluminense v Bolívar in Libertadores | OneFootball

Luis Zubeldía will be unavailable for Fluminense in this Tuesday’s match, at 7 p.m., against Bolívar at the Maracanã, in the fifth round of the Libertadores group stage.

The coach will serve an automatic suspension after receiving his third yellow card in the competition. The most recent booking came in the match against Independiente Rivadavia in Argentina, when Zubeldía was cautioned in the 34th minute of the second half for dissent.

Without the head coach on the touchline, assistant manager Maxi Cuberas is expected to take charge of the team. The Argentine already led the side earlier in the season, when Zubeldía had to step away temporarily to undergo a heart procedure.

The other two cards received by the Tricolor coach came in the group-stage opener, a goalless draw against La Guaira, and in the 2-0 loss to Bolívar itself in the third round of the continental tournament.
