Bremen's Pizarro faces three-match ban

Soccer Betting Lines

12/09/2008 - Bremen, Germany (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Werder Bremen striker Claudio Pizarro has been suspended for three matches after being sent off at the weekend.

The Peru international saw red in the last minute of the 1-0 defeat to Karlsruhe when he lashed out at Martin Stoll.

The German Football Association punished Pizarro, who is on a season-long loan at Bremen from Chelsea, with violent conduct.

Pizarro, who will miss the final game of 2008 and the first two Bundesliga fixtures of 2009, has scored ten goals in 13 games for Werder so far this season.
