Chile\u2019s Gonzalo Jara will miss the rest of the Copa America after being given a three-match ban for an incident in which he appeared to poke his finger against Uruguay striker Edinson Cavani\u2019s backside.<\/p>\n
South American football governing body Conmebol said the defender was being suspended for \u201cunsporting behaviour\u201d. Jara has also been fined $7,500 (\u00a34,780).<\/p>\n
The incident happened during Chile\u2019s 1-0 quarter-final win last Thursday.<\/p>\n
Cavani was given a second yellow card after he slapped Jara, who went unpunished, in retaliation.<\/p>\n
Former West Brom and Nottingham Forest defender Jara\u2019s ban means he will miss the semi-final clash with Peru on Monday and, depending on the result of that game, either the final or third-place playoff.<\/p>\n
He will also be suspended for Chile\u2019s first match of the qualifying campaign for the 2018 World Cup.<\/p>\n
