Maradona handed two-month ban
Published 17:41 15/11/09 By Pa Sports
Argentina coach Diego Maradona has been handed a two-month ban from "any football-related activity" by a FIFA disciplinary committee for his outburst following the World Cup qualifier against Uruguay last month.
Maradona hit out at his critics following his side's 1-0 win in Montevideo on October 14, which secured their place at next summer's finals in South Africa.
The 49-year-old apologised for his comments at the hearing in Zurich but FIFA opted to impose the ban as well as a £14,800 fine.
