Paris Saint-Germain forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic has been banned for two matches on Wednesday for challenging opponents' player.

Ibrahimovic will sit out of the European Champions League quarterfinals first leg if Paris Saint-Germain advances.

UEFA extended an automatic one-match sanction for Ibrahimovic's challenge on Valencia midfielder Andres Guardado in stoppage-time of a last-16, first-leg match this month when PSG won 2-1.

Ibrahimovic was shown a straight red card in stoppage-time in Spain, and was already certain to miss the return in Paris on March 6.
