Song banned for three games

Cameroon's Alex Song has been given a three-match ban by Fifa for elbowing Croatia striker Mario Mandzukic.

The midfielder was sent off  in the 40th minute for the offence in the World Cup Group A match on 18 June.
Cameroon were a single goal down at the time of the sending off and ended up losing 4-0 and crash out of the tournament in Brazil.
Song, 26, immediately got an automatic one-match ban but Fifa extended the suspension because of the gravity of the offence.

He will miss Cameroon's final match against Brazil on Monday and will also be unable to feature for his country's next two official matches.
In addition, the Barcelona Midfielder

has been fined US$22,300 (£13,100).
