He has been given a four-match Serie B ban following his red card in the chaotic match between Novara and Cremonese.

Macheda kicked out at an opponent while on the ground “deliberately and with violence, then took a provocative attitude towards another player of the opposition team.”

Liam Henderson of Bari was also sent off this round and was banned for only one game.
