Maguire was issued a red card for denying an obvious goal-scoring opportunity, confirmed by VAR as a holding offence. Following his dismissal, he has been charged by the FA for allegedly using abusive language towards the fourth official. He must respond to the charge by April 2. If proven, he may face an extended suspension or a fine. Maguire is set to serve a one-match ban against Leeds, but could be available for the Chelsea match unless further punishment is imposed.
