Manchester United manager José Mourinho has been handed a one-match touchline ban after being sent off during Sunday's draw with West Ham United.
The former Chelsea boss, who was slapped with an FA charge after kicking a bottle of water in response to Paul Pogba being booked for diving, has also been fined £16,000.
According to the BBC, the ban will apply to tonight's EFL Cup quarter-final, also at home to West Ham United.
Pogba will miss the quarter-final through suspension, as will fellow midfielder Marouane Fellaini, after the pair were both booked for the fifth time this season over the weekend.
