Adebayor gets additional one-match ban

Arsenal striker Emmanuel Adebayor has been given an additional one-match ban and fined £7,500 (€11,000) after being found guilty of “reacting aggressively and failing to leave the field of play immediately” in the Carling Cup final.

Adebayor was sent off for his part in the brawl which marred Chelsea’s 2-1 win over Arsenal at the Millennium Stadium and was given a three-match ban.
