Southampton forward Dani Osvaldo will miss the Premier League club's next three games after the FA found him guilty of violent conduct on Friday.
.
The Argentine-born Italian was involved in a touchline fracas in stoppage time during the 1-1 draw at Newcastle United last month, having already been substituted.
.
As well as a three-match ban, Osvaldo was fined £40 000 for his part in the incident which also saw Newcastle coach Andy Woodman sent to the stands. Woodman was fined £1 250 and warned about his future conduct after he admitted a charge of improper conduct.
.
Osvaldo will miss Saturday's third round FA Cup tie against second tier visitors Burnley as well as the league matches at home to West Bromwich Albion and away to Sunderland.
He deserves it. That would make him know how to behave in similar situation next time. I support the punishment.
This is the basic thing we expected to happen to him after what he did on the pitch. It was bound to happen.
