LUANDA, Sept 30: Angolan striker Love, who competed at the recent World Cup finals, has been handed a 60-day suspension for a vicious tackle on an opponent, the Angolan Football federation said on Saturday.
The AS Aviacao forward has been banned from appearing in domestic GiraBola championship matches for two months but he has been selected for his country's African Nations Cup qualifier against Kenya in Luanda on Oct 8.
