Atletico Madrid Coach lost temper - Quique Sanchez Flores


Atletico Madrid coach Quique Sanchez Flores has received a 2-game touchline ban from the Spanish FA (RFEF) as a result of his behavior during his side' s 3-2 home defeat to Espanyol at the weekend.
With his side trailing 3-2 in the closing moments, Quique lost his temper at Espanyol midfielder Javi Marquez, who was lying on the ground after having been fouled and tried to pull him to his feet.
The referee sent Quique to the stands for that action, but at the end of the game, the Atletico coach returned to the pitch to remonstrate with Espanyol striker Luis Garcia, who he later accused of 'laughing at the club and their fans,' . Quique had to be physically restrained by Espanyol goalkeeper Carlos Kameni in the resulting free for all between both sets of players.
The RFEF decided to suspend Quique for one game for his original sending off and for a further match as a result of his decision to return to the field of play.
