Chelsea coach Marco Ianni has been fined £6,000 by the Football Association after he admitted to charge of improper conduct after his actions towards the end of the match against Manchester United on October 20th.
Ianni sparked a touchline brawl as he celebrated Ross Barkley’s injury-time equaliser in front of the Manchester United dugout, something which infuriated Jose Mourinho.
Chelsea looked to be heading towards their first defeat of the season before Barkley scored deep into stoppage time and Ianni let the occasion get the best of him as he celebrated.
Speaking after the incident, Mourinho told Sky Sports that both Maurizio Sarri and Ianni had apologized for what had taken place and he declared the matter closed.
There had been some speculation that Mourinho would be punished for his part in the fracas, but the FA did not deem his actions worthy of any disciplinary action.
