Lorenz Assignon News: Handball leads to red card

Assignon was shown a red card in the 81st minute of Saturday's 5-0 loss to Bayern Munich.

Assignon would be sent off with a straight red card late into Saturday's outing, sticking out his arm to stop a shot in a reflexive move and denying a clear goal-scoring opportunity. This is going to be a rough loss for the club, as he is a solid defensive option from the bench. He will miss their next match and return against Hoffenheim on Dec. 20, likely to return to a bench spot when an option.
