Roma coach Jose Mourinho escaped a touchline ban after cooperating with the Italian football federation's disciplinary prosecutor and was instead only fined €20,000 ($22,000) on Friday for labelling a referee unstable.
Before a recent match with Sassuolo, Mourinho questioned the abilities of referee Matteo Marcenaro.
"We had him three times as a fourth official and I don't think he has the emotional stability for games of this level," Mourinho said.
ROME (AP) — Salernitana missed a golden opportunity to pick up its first win of the Italian league season on Friday when it gave up a two-goal lead to draw 2-2 away at Sassuolo.
The result was a big blow to Salernitana coach Filippo Inzaghi. The former Juventus and AC Milan striker has yet to win any of his four league games since taking charge in October and the club remains rooted to the bottom of the Serie A table with just five points from 12 games.
Salernitana is the 30th team in the history of the Serie A not to win any of its first 12 games in the league season. Of the previous 29, only three avoided relegation.
