Kaku suspended an additional two games

The MLS Disciplinary Committee handed down their verdict on Kaku for his actions during the match between Sporting Kansas City and the New York Red Bulls on April 14th.

Kaku ran up to the ball during a stoppage in play and kicked it directly in to the stands from close range, injuring a fan in the process. For that action, he received a red for violent conduct at the end of the match.

After reviewing the incident, the MLS Disciplinary Committee levied an additional two-game suspension (three games total) and fined him an undisclosed amount for reckless misconduct.
