Independent Review Panel Approves New York City FC's Appeal of Braian Cufré Red Card

June 7, 2023 - Major League Soccer (MLS) News Release


NEW YORK - The Independent Review Panel, consisting of one representative from the U.S. Soccer Federation, one representative from the Canadian Soccer Association, and one independent representative nominated by the Professional Referee Organization, has unanimously rescinded the one-game suspension and accompanying fine for the red card issued to New York City FC's Braian Cufré in the 90th minute of New York's match against the New England Revolution on Saturday, June 3.

Cufré is now eligible to play in New York's next regular season game against Real Salt Lake on Saturday, June 10.

Each club is entitled to two unsuccessful appeals per season, including the Audi MLS Cup Playoffs. Since NYCFC's appeal was successful, the club maintains its two unsuccessful appeals for any future red cards in the 2023 season.
