Farke gets one-match touchline ban after red card
- Published
Leeds boss Daniel Farke has been given a one-game touchline ban and by the FA for his sending off after the defeat by Manchester City.
The German headed straight on to the Elland Road pitch at the final whistle to confront referee Peter Bankes, aggrieved at several decisions in his side's hard-fought 1-0 loss in the Premier League.
In his new conference before the next game, Farke said he "will never jog again" after being "embarrassed in front of the whole world" by his sending off - the first of his 16-year managerial career.
An FA statement said Farke admitted the misconduct charge and "accepted the standard one-match suspension and £8,000 fine".
The punishment means Farke will not be on the touchline for Leeds FA Cup fifth-round tie against his former side Norwich City at Elland Road on Sunday.
