"This came after UEFA took an unusually long time to decide how long Diaz would be suspended for in the first place. The Colombian already sat out the game against Arsenal - a game Bayern ended up losing 3-1. The team's next Champions League game is on Tuesday, and if no response had come by then, Diaz will have to serve a minimum of two games banned."
"Per Sport1, impatience was growing in Munich over the delay. UEFA had already taken over two weeks to issue the notice of a three game ban, after which FC Bayern had to wait for the written justification to be made available in order to lodge an official appeal. Two more weeks passed since then, and it was still radio silence from UEFA."
UEFA delayed responding to Bayern Munich's appeal over Luis Díaz's red-card suspension, initially issuing a three-game ban after an unusually long deliberation. Díaz missed the Arsenal match and faced the prospect of serving at least two Champions League matches if UEFA's written justification did not arrive in time. Munich grew impatient after UEFA took over two weeks to issue the ban notice and then provided no written justification for another two weeks. Fans suspected foul play because PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi sits on the UEFA executive committee. UEFA later reduced the suspension to two games, leaving questions about the prolonged delay.
