Ibrahimovic and Lukaku given one-match bans after Coppa Italia clash

Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Romelu Lukaku have been given a one-match ban following Tuesday’s Milan derby.

AC Milan forward Ibrahimovic was given the ban after being shown two yellow cards, one of them for a confrontation with Inter striker Lukaku.

Ibrahimovic denied using racist language in the clash, which could yet be the subject of an investigation.
