Torino coach Sinisa Mihajlovic has been given a two-match touchline ban and fined 10,000 euros for his reaction to the dismissal of Afriyie Acquah in Saturday's derby clash with Juventus.
Serbian Mihajlovic ended the game in the stands after he was reprimanded for coming onto the pitch to protest Acquah's red card, which came just before the hour mark for picking up his second yellow card in a challenge where he clearly won the ball.
Mihajlovic had said in his post-match press conference: "It did not take a nuclear engineer to understand that it was not a foul.
"It was an unjustifiable mistake, though I'm sorry for my reaction. But what should I do? Do you give him a kiss?
"I asked the fourth official why he did not help the referee, what are they doing there? They do not even have the courage to talk."
The game ended 1-1, with Adem Ljajic putting Torino ahead only for Gonzalo Higuain to equalise for Juventus in stoppage time.
The 48-year-old will be suspended for Torino's matches against Napoli and Genoa and return for their last Serie A game against Sassuolo.
