Former AC Milan coach fined 10,000 euros for ref rant
Former AC Milan coach Paulo Fonseca was fined 10,000 euros ($10,466) by the Italian Football Federation (FIGC) on Thursday for a post-match rant against the referee last year.
"During interviews after the match against Atalanta, the former AC Milan coach expressed judgements detrimental to the reputation of the referee and the arbitration institution as a whole," the FIGC said.
AC Milan were fined 5,000 euros.
At the end of the Italian league match which AC Milan lost 2-1 in Bergamo last month, Fonseca said that the result had been "determined" by referee Federico La Penna.
"The referee decided the result of this match, and it is not the first time," insisted the Portuguese coach.
Fonseca was sacked in December after just six months in charge with compatriot Sergio Conceicao taking over.
"I have always respected the work of referees, but there are so many mistakes every weekend, always at the expense of the same clubs. The way the referee officiated during this match is a lack of respect towards Milan," he added.
AC Milan won the Italian Super Cup at the beginning of January under Conceicao but remain stuck in eighth place in Serie A -- 19 points behind leaders Napoli.
