Major League Soccer has slapped Philadelphia Union defender Kai Wagner with a three-game suspension for allegedly using an anti-Asian slur directed at New England Revolution striker Bobby Wood during a playoff match. What happened: Wagner, 26, allegedly violated the MLS’ on-field anti-discrimination rule when he purportedly directed an anti-Asian slur in German at Wood, 30, who is of Black and Japanese descent, during an argument between the two teams in their playoff match on Oct. 28. The argument erupted after referee Pierre-Luc Lauzière called a late foul against New England’s Giacomo Vrioni, 25, on the Union’s Nathan Harriel, 22, during the later part of the game, according to The Philadelphia Inquirer.
