Chelsea
coach Marco Ianni has been fined £6,000 by the Football Association after
admitting improper conduct against Manchester United.
The Italian sparked controversy in the 96th minute during the recent clash
with United at Stamford Bridge on October 20.
A late Ross Barkley goal salvaged a point for the Blues, prompting Ianni to
run down the touchline and celebrate animatedly in front of the United
technical area.
Ianni's actions brought responses from the United bench and staff, with
manager Jose Mourinho left furious following the final whistle.
After being initially charged by the FA, Ianni accepted improper conduct for
his actions. Mourinho and both teams were also reminded of the standards of
behaviour expected from both players and staff.
