Matic set to miss Capital One Cup final after red card

Matic sent off vs Burnley Feb2015
Hmmm....Hope they listen to him.....Chelsea will be without key midfielder Nemanja Matic, when they play the Capital One Cup final next weekend.
The Serbian was shown a straight red card by referee Martin Atkinson, during the Blues’ 1-1 draw with Burnley at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.

Matic pushed Ashley Barnes onto the pitch, in retaliation for a horrible tackle by the Burnley player. Atkinson missed the challenge, but pulled out a red card for the Chelsea man.
Unless he appeals the decision and it is reversed, the 26-year-old will miss the final against Tottenham Hotspur and league games against West Ham and Southampton.
Barnes was not booked for the tackle and also escaped a yellow card for a kick on Branislav Ivanovic in the first half.
