The sanctions were more severe for Monaco. Willem Geubbels and Pietro Pellegri received three and two matches respectively for their role in instigating the post-whistle brouhaha, but with neither player having featured all that often for the Principality club this season, Niko Kovac's side will be relatively unaffected as they travel to Reims on Sunday afternoon. ... and the rest
