Chelsea coach, Thomas Tuchel has been suspended for one-game touchline and a fine of £35,000 while Tottenham coach, Antonio Conte was hit with a £15,000 penalty for the part they played in their touchline bust-up during Chelsea and Tottenham match last Sunday, August 14.
According to an independent party investigation, Tuchel was found guiltier over the post-match clash with Conte.
Tuchel and Conte were red carded at full-time and then exchanged words as they shook hands, with the Blues boss blaming Conte for his refusal to look him in the eyes.
An FA spokesperson said: ‘An independent Regulatory Commission has today ordered that Thomas Tuchel be fined £35,000 and banned from the touchline for one match, and Antonio Conte is fined £15,000 after they respectively breached FA Rule E3.
‘Thomas Tuchel and Antonio Conte admitted that their behavior after the final whistle of the Premier League game between Chelsea FC and Tottenham Hotspur FC on Sunday 14 August 2022 was improper, and both managers requested a paper hearing.’
‘These sanctions are subject to appeal, and Thomas Tuchel’s one-match touchline ban has been suspended temporarily pending the independent Regulatory Commission’s written reasons for its decisions that will be made available in due course.’
