Cristiano Ronaldo could be banned for as many as TWELVE games after being sent off after punching an opponent, reports in Spain suggest.
The World Player of the Year kicked and hit out at Cordoba defender Edimar and was shown a straight red card during Saturday's La Liga clash.
And Catalan newspaper Mundo Deportivo speculate the Portuguese could be booted out of the league for as many as twelve games if found guilty of excessive aggression when a disciplinary panel meet on Wednesday.
That said, such a severe sanction would be extremely surprising.
However, were he to be banned for three or more games, he wouldn't be available for selection for the February showdowns with Sevilla or Atletico Madrid and more.
Following the clash, which Madrid won through a late Gareth Bale penalty, Ronaldo apologised for his uncharacteristic actions on Twitter.
He wrote: "I apologise to every and especially Edimar for my thoughtless act in the game today."
