Milan’s Jovic hit with two-match ban for hitting opponent

The Hindu  

Luka Jovic was banned for two Serie A matches on Tuesday after hitting an opponent during AC Milan’s dramatic 4-2 defeat at Monza at the weekend. In a statement, Serie A said that Serbia forward Jovic was sent off early in the second half, with his team two goals down, for slapping Monza’s Armando Izzo. Olivier Giroud and Christian Pulisic then made light of being a man down by pulling Milan level with two minutes remaining, but Monza stunned its opponent with last-gasp strikes from Warren Bondo and Lorenzo Colombo. Also hit with a heavy ban was Lazio’s sporting director Mariano Fabiani, who was suspended for a month for a tirade against officials during Sunday’s 2-1 defeat to Bologna.
