Juventus directors given lengthy punishments after Derby d\u2019Italia<\/p>\n

The decisions of the sports judge<\/a> have arrived following the completion of the 25th round of Serie A fixtures.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The harshest punishment has been handed to Juventus CEO Comolli, who has been banned until March 31 and has been given a fine of \u20ac15,000 for adopting an \u2018aggressive and seriously intimidating attitude\u2019 towards referee Federico La Penna in the tunnel at half-time following the sending off of defender Pierre Kalulu.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The report from the sports judge adds that Comolli sought to make physical contact with the referee, which \u2018was prevented thanks to the intervention of the Juventus coach and other members and coaches\u2019. This behaviour also continued outside the referees\u2019 dressing room.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Chiellini has also been punished for protesting \u2018in an agitated and disrespectful manner\u2019 in the tunnel and outside the referees\u2019 dressing room. He has been handed a ban until the end of February (27th).\u00a0<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, Milan sporting director Igli Tare has also been fined \u20ac10,000 for \u2018aggressively\u2019 protesting the referee\u2019s decision after entering the field of play following Milan\u2019s 2-1 victory away against Pisa<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Which players have been banned after Serie A Week 25?\u00a0<\/p>\n

Gift Orban has been handed the most severe punishment of any player after the conclusion of the 25th round of fixtures. He has been handed a two-match ban for his comments towards the match official during Hellas Verona\u2019s 2-1 loss against Parma<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It has been confirmed that Pierre Kalulu will have to serve a one-match suspension, despite being wrongly sent off in the 42nd minute of the Derby d\u2019Italia between Juventus and Inter.\u00a0<\/p>\n
