RAMIRES HANDED FOUR-MATCH BAN BY THE FA

The Football Association has handed Chelsea midfielder Ramires, a four-match ban after he accepted an FA charge of violent conduct, during the Blues’ 2-1 loss to Sunderland.
The Brazilian hit Black Cats’ midfielder Sebastian Larsson in the face, in an incident which referee Mike Dean failed to spot and will now miss the remaining games of this season.
“Chelsea midfielder Ramires has accepted a charge of violent conduct following an off-the-ball incident that was not seen by the match officials but caught on video,” an FA statement read.
“The incident occurred during Chelsea’s Premier League fixture against Sunderland at Stamford Bridge on Saturday, April 19.
“Ramires receives a four-match ban which will start with immediate effect.
“The ban includes three games for this offence plus an additional game for his sending-off at Villa Park last month.”
Meanwhile, Blues boss Jose Mourinho and his assistant Rui Faria, have until Monday to respond to their own charges of misconduct.
