After Vienna Derby: Suspension for Rapid Vienna Goalkeeper Niklas Hedl

The disciplinary committee of the Football Bundesliga suspended Rapid Vienna goalkeeper Niklas Hedl for one game on Wednesday.

The reason for the suspension of Rapid goalkeeper Niklas Hedl was a provocative gesture by the goalie on Sunday after the Vienna derby, which occurred outside the perception range of the referee and VAR, prompting a disciplinary prosecutor to take action.

Rapid Vienna Announces Protest After Hedl's Suspension

Rapid's Managing Director of Sport Markus Katzer described it as a "completely incomprehensible decision" and announced a protest. When this protest will be addressed is still open. As it stands, Hedl would have to watch the away match against LASK on Sunday.
