Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger, has been given a four-match touchline ban and £25,000 fine after accepting an English Football Association charge of misconduct for his behaviour in the win over Burnley.
Wenger was charged with verbally abusing and pushing fourth official Anthony Taylor after being sent off.
It was alleged that in or around the 92nd minute, he used abusive and/or insulting words towards the fourth official.
It was further alleged that following his dismissal from the technical area, his behaviour in remaining in the tunnel area and making physical contact with the fourth official amounted to improper conduct.
The Arsenal manager admitted the charge and requested a personal hearing which took place before an Independent Regulatory Commission on Friday.
The club has decided it will not be appealing the decision.
The 67-year-old misses Saturday’s FA Cup tie against Southampton and Premier League games against Watford, Chelsea and Hull.
He will be back for the Premier League trip to Liverpool on March 4.
