Koulibaly suspended for two games as Inter receive stadium ban

Kalidou Koulibaly has been given a two game-ban after his sending off against Inter, with the Italian side given a two-game stadium ban for allegedly racially abusing the defender.

Koulibaly had monkey noises directed at him during the top four clash on Wednesday before being sent off for sarcastic applause towards the referee.

Napoli manager Carlo Ancelotti revealed he tried to have the match suspended “three times” and insists next time his players will simply walk off the pitch should they hear any abuse.

Inter will be forced to play their next two home games behind closed doors, with a third game being extended to their infamous Curva Nord stand.

Lorenzo Insigne will also serve a two-game ban after he was dismissed in injury time.
