The MLS Disciplinary Committee handed down a one-game suspension to Real Salt Lake striker Luis Silva for what can only be described as a double groin stomp.

The incident in question occurred in the 61st minute of RSL's 1-0 loss to Orlando City Friday.

A challenge from Orlando's José Aja resulted in the center back rolling around on the pitch in pain.

Aja went to the ground as he poked the ball away from Silva and tripped up the RSL striker. As Silva tried to regain his balance, he appeared to step on Aja with his left foot.
