    Club Brugge head coach, Ivan Leko has expressed disappointment with Raphael Onyedika’s suspension for the second leg of their UEFA Champions League playoffs tie against Atletico Madrid.

    Onyedika was booked in the 76th minute of Club Brugge’s thrilling 3-3 draw with Diego Simeone’s side at the Jan Breydelstadion on Wednesday night.

    The defensive midfielder starred for the Belgian Pro League side in the thrilling encounter.

    The reverse fixture will hold next week Tuesday at the Metropolitano Stadium.
