Sheffield Wednesday boss Brian Laws has accused Jermaine Johnson on naivety after he was handed a one-match suspension.
The Jamaica international was sent off during the Owls' 2-1 defeat at Watford on Tuesday after being shown two yellow cards and will now miss Saturday's visit of Leicester City in the Championship.
"Jermaine Johnson came in and did really well," Laws told the club's official website.
"I thought he was outstanding, but unfortunately he was sent off.
"There was a bit of a scuffle for the first yellow card and he says he has been punched in the face but we will have to see if there were any words said to the referee.
"Then he has lunged in for the second, which is a bit of naivety so it is a shame."
