Racing Louisville FC forward Kayla Fischer has been suspended for three games following a red card for hair-pulling during a match against Angel City FC. The incident occurred in the 67th minute of that game, impacting the final score. Fischer's behavior has been condemned, and she issued an apology, taking responsibility for her actions. The league's Disciplinary Committee reviewed the misconduct and the team has the option to appeal, though they are unlikely to do so. Fischer will miss several upcoming matches but is eager to demonstrate her growth when she returns to play.
I would like to apologize to Madison Hammond and Angel City for my actions last weekend. It was never my intention to be overly aggressive while defending a corner, and I sincerely regret my behavior and letting my teammates down.
Fischer was ejected in the 67th minute of Racing's 3-2 win over Angel City FC on Saturday after a video review showed her pulling the hair of Angel City FC midfielder Madison Hammond.
