United talent severely punished for biting opponent

Kieran O'hara was in the summer leased from Manchester United to Burton, and here the 23-year-old goalkeeper made a fine figure with nine clean sheets in 33 matches.

Burton do not get the joy of O'hara in the upcoming six matches, but it is not due to an injury to the goalkeeper.

However, O'hara was sentenced to a six-match ban for having bitten Peterborough Sammie Szmodics in the two teams ' showdown on Saturday.

the Burton manager Nigel Clough has told, that the O'hara refuses to have bitten Szmodics, but the FA has now found him guilty and sentenced him to a longer quarantine, as well as a fine.

O'hara has not yet appeared for the Manchester United first team.

It is rare that players choose to bite an opponent, but however, it is not the first time that it happens in british football. Back in 2013 was the then-Liverpool-profile Luis Suarez sentenced to ten match ban for biting Chelsea: Branislav Ivanovic.
