Fulham's Riether handed three-match ban for Januzaj stamp

The German defender became the first player charged retrospectively by the FA under a pilot project for 'not seen' incidents for an apparent stamp on Belgian Januzaj on Saturday.

The challenge, near the end of United's 3-1 Premier League win at Craven Cottage, was not seen by referee Lee Probert.

Under the new rules the incident was looked at by a three-man panel of former elite referees.

Fulham's next three league matches are against Liverpool, Swansea City and West Ham United.
