Allegri suspended for 2 Serie A games after red card
The Napoli coach will miss Wednesday's match at Monza and Sunday's trip to Juventus.
Napoli coach Massimiliano Allegri has been suspended for two Serie A games and fined after receiving a red card during his team's 3-3 draw with AS Roma. The Italian League cited misconduct towards officials as the reason for Allegri's dismissal from the bench. Allegri, who was sent off in the 89th minute following an altercation with a Roma official, stated he would not appeal the ban, acknowledging the uncertainty that could lead to a longer suspension.
He expressed disappointment that Napoli failed to secure the three points despite a strong performance. Allegri believes that whoever takes his place on the bench will likely perform better than himself, given his recent criticism since joining Napoli last summer. The team currently sits in 10th place in Serie A, 11 points behind league leaders Inter Milan.
