Chelsea assistant coach Rui Faria has been handed a six-match stadium ban for improper conduct.

He has also been fined £30,000 after admitting two Football Association charges. 

Jose Mourinho's assistant had to be held back after an angry confrontation with the referee during his side's loss to Sunderland last month.

Faria lost his cool after referee Mike Dean awarded a penalty to Sunderland late in the game with Fabio Borini converting the spot kick.

He also had to be dragged down the tunnel at Stamford Bridge by other members of the Chelsea backroom staff after refusing to leave the touchline.
