# Oliveira’s wife calls for lengthy Mings ban

Nelson Oliveira’s wife has called for Aston Villa defender Tyrone Mings to receive a lengthy ban after the collision that left the striker requiring surgery.

Mings stamped on Oliveira’s face after a coming together with the striker, something that the Villa loanee has [assured supporters](https://www.goal.com/en-ie/news/mings-apologises-for-dealing-gruesome-facial-injury-to/j0pf1o1vxgdf1cl4qc8c243xn) was purely accidental.

However, despite Mings pleading it was accidental and expressing his concern for Oliveira, Mel Oliveira cites the defender’s ‘previous’ and has called for him to face a ban for the clash.

This is not the first time that Mings has found himself caught up in a scenario like this, having [clashed](https://www.msn.com/pt-pt/video/entretenimento/zlatan-ibrahimovic-vs-tyrone-mings-and-fight/vi-BBT9Np7) with Zlatan Ibrahimovic during the Swede’s time at Manchester United.

During a game at Old Trafford, Mings also appeared to stamp on Ibrahimovich’s head after a series of heated tackles between the pair.
