English FA have upheld their decision to ban Chelsea goalkeeper, Thibaut Courtois for his side's next game against Manchester City next weekend.
The Belgian was given a straight Red for his tackle against Gomis in their premier league opener last Saturday.
The former Atletico Madrid goalkeeper will now miss the game against red hot City which trashed West Bromwich Albion 3-0 on Monday night.
Courtois was sent off for denying a goal scoring opportunity in the 52nd minute of Chelsea's 2-2 draw against Swansea City at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.
An independent regulatory commission rejected Chelsea's appeal against the red card and upheld a one-match suspension, the FA said.
The ruling will give back-up keeper Asmir Begovic, signed from Stoke City earlier this summer as a replacement for Petr Cech, the chance to make his first Premier League start for Chelsea. Supersport
