Sulley Muntari given one-match ban after complaining about racial abuse

Sulley Muntari will serve a one-match ban after he protested against racial abuse from fans during a Serie A game on Sunday, Italian authorities have confirmed.

The 32-year-old Ghanaian walked off the pitch in protest after being shown a yellow card for apparent dissent in the 90th minute of Pescara's 1-0 defeat at Cagliari and was subsequently sent off, according to officials.
