Instead of a standard one-match suspension, Minnesota United FC midfielder Ibson was hit with a two-game ban Thursday for the red card he received during Saturday’s North American Soccer League match against Jacksonville.

Ibson, who is tied for second on the team with three assists, was shown a red card in the 77th minute, forcing the Loons to play with 10 men for the final 13-plus minutes of a 0-0 draw with the Armada. Ibson’s spikes hit Jacksonville’s Kevan George’s midsection as both players were going for the ball.

“It wasn’t good, and I’m not standing up against a red (card) — no problem,” United coach Carl Craig said. “But to give the extra game, I don’t know. … Everything just goes as one, and all of a sudden, they throw another one in. Crazy. I’m a bit cynical, to be honest with you. No explanation.”
