Roma midfielder Seydou Keita has been banned for one game and fined for his actions in last night’s defeat to Sampdoria.
The former Barcelona man was dismissed in the 2-0 defeat, after picking up a second yellow card for sarcastically applauding his first booking.
The Lega Serie A has taken a dim view of the incident, with a €1,500 fine on top of the customary one game ban for two yellow cards because of his “sarcastic applause to the referee”.
