Everton's appeal against Tim Cahill's red card in Sunday's 3-1 win over
Newcastle has been rejected.
The club appealed after the Australia international was dismissed following an
altercation with Magpies midfielder Yohan Cabaye at the full-time whistle.
However, the club have confirmed, via their website, they have
been unsuccessful and Cahill will now serve a three-match ban at the start of
next season.
Cabaye, who was cautioned by referee Andre Marriner, had issued an apology on
Newcastle's website at the weekend.
"I would like to apologise for the cross words I exchanged with Tim Cahill
which resulted in his red card and my booking on the final whistle,'' he said.
"It was unnecessary and, regrettably, the result of frustration and
disappointment, all in the heat of the moment. It is out of character and for that I am sorry.''
