Arsène Wenger has been given a four-match touchline ban with immediate effect after he was charged for misconduct following the game against Burnley on Sunday, January 22.
It was in the 92nd minute the fracas occurred when Wenger used abusive and/or insulting words towards the fourth official. It was further alleged that following his dismissal from the technical area, his behaviour in remaining in the tunnel area and making physical contact with the fourth official amounted to improper conduct.
The Arsenal manager, who was also fined £25,000, admitted the charge and requested a personal hearing which took place before an Independent Regulatory Commission today.
