UEFA impose four-match ban on Jose Mourinho

AS Roma manager Jose Mourinho has been handed a four-match ban by UEFA for his misconduct towards referee Anthony Taylor in the Europa League final.

Mourinho was charged by UEFA for using insulting or abusive language towards the English official after Roma lost to Sevilla in the heated final on May 31.

The 60-year-old Portuguese coach received a booking from English referee Anthony Taylor during the match, in which Roma lost to Sevilla in a penalty shootout after a 1-1 draw.
