Diego Costa will miss Chelsea’s next three matches after a Football Association charge of violent conduct was upheld.
Costa had denied the charge, relating to an incident with Arsenal’s Laurent Koscielny in the 2-0 win over Arsenal.
The charge was upheld at an independent hearing on Tuesday.
Costa, 26, put his hands in the face of Koscielny before clashing with Gabriel, who was sent off but had a three-game ban overturned earlier on Tuesday.
