I’d have thought he’d have some marks/bruising after his assault by Kamara, if it was as bad as he claimed. Has there been any pictures of his injuries ?

From BBC Sport:
Slavia had asserted that Kudela was subject to a "brutal attack" by Kamara, which was "carried out with full intensity in order to injure and cause physical damage".
They said Uefa delegates witnessed the incident, along with Rangers manager Steven Gerrard.
Not read Rangers take on it.
We didn’t need to see the cuts to see the tackle and the punishment it deserved though.
Assault is assault - if it was witnessed (and this should have been easier than the racist attack to prove) then it doesn’t really matter how hurt he got.
The racist abuse would not have been different if Kamara had laughed it off, said it didn’t bother him and instead he pitied anyone ignorant enough to come out with that nonsense. Nah, it would still have been racist abuse.
The Rangers' statement:
We welcome the suspension imposed on Ondrej Kudela. This not only vindicates Glen Kamara’s evidence but underlines the severity of the comment, given the number of games which have been imposed by UEFA.
Nevertheless, we believe the sanctions imposed on our two players (Glen Kamara and Kemar Roofe) are severe. We have written to UEFA, seeking clarification in writing on the basis that we intend to appeal the suspensions on both of players.
We will make no further comment on this matter.
Perhaps more to come for both.
