The Inter boss was sent to the stands during the second half of a 3-0 Milan victory at San Siro. He was unhappy with referee Antonio Damato's decision not to award his team a penalty.

A Lega Serie A statement confirmed the former Manchester City manager would be banned from the home dugout when Inter host Chievo on Wednesday night.

Mancini apologised for the gesture on his twitter account.
