Bad news for the DFB team: Robin Gosens is threatened with suspension after the defeat against France.

He cleared opponent Benjamin Pavard.

Munich - As it should be for a real cracker like Germany against France, there was a huge crash in the 58th minute: Robin Gosens stormed from the back area towards a cross from Joshua Kimmich * and rushed into Benjamin Pavard with full force.

With the hip bone he hit the Bayern star on the head - not without consequences.

Because what most viewers did not see: Pavard lost consciousness for a short time in the collision *.

"I was unconscious for ten, 15 seconds," he said in an interview after the game.

Gosens did not even see the yellow card for his overly tough entry, but now there can be an aftermath.

UEFA is considering a subsequent suspension of the national player, as reported by the French radio station

EM: DFB left wing Gosens threatens suspension for foul on Pavard

The foul also called the FIFPro players' union on the scene, but for a different reason.

At the beginning of the week, all teams had signed a protocol that was explicitly intended to protect the players from head injuries.

Pavard should therefore have been replaced in order to undergo a detailed check.

However, the Bayern player stayed on the field and helped his team to bring the narrow lead over time.

Now it could well be that the national team will have to do without Gosens in the decisive game against Portugal.

The left winger was one of the best with his passionate commitment and some good flanks against France.

UEFA also issued a subsequent suspension against the Austrian Marko Arnautovic *, who had made a verbal slip in the direction of his opponent Ezgjan Alioski while celebrating the goal.

Whether the association will also take action at Gosens will be decided in the next few days.

EM: Halstenberg and Günter are Gosens alternatives for Portugal

In the final phase, Jogi Löw * replaced the Italian legionnaire and brought in striker Kevin Volland. To everyone's surprise, however, he was not allowed to fight for equalization at the front, but had to fill the completely unfamiliar left-back position. That is probably not the solution against Portugal, with Marcel Halstenberg and Christian Günter there are two left-footers and trained full-backs ready - should Gosens actually be suspended.
