Reasons for Chelsea's Thomas Tuchel receiving ban for Antonio Conte clash revealed

The independent regulatory commission have released their written reasons for handing Thomas Tuchel a ban and a fine following his clash with Antonio Conte at full time of Chelsea's clash against Tottenham. Tuchel was handed a one-match ban and a £35,000 fine, while his Italian counterpart was fined £15,000.

The coaches clashed earlier in the match in the aftermath of Tottenham's first goal and were handed a yellow card before being sent off at the end of the match as Tuchel held Conte's grip when they went to shake hands. The clash resulted in a number of bodies surrounding the duo from both teams, and the FA charged both men with misconduct.

Tuchel was still on the touchline against Leeds United at the weekend, with his ban being temporarily suspended in anticipation for the commision's reasons being released. The German coach was able to provide his interpretation of events as part of a written hearing over the charge.
