Palermo’s Alessandro Diamanti has been given a two-match ban for his red card against Udinese this weekend.
The former Italian international was shown a straight red card for an elbow on Rodrigo De Paul, though it wasn’t clear if it was deliberate.
It appears though that the Lega Serie A was in no doubt about the intention behind his action, giving Diamanti a two-match ban for “gravely unsporting conduct”.
