Juventus head coach Antonio Conte has received a two-match touchline ban as a result of his angry outburst in the wake of Saturday\'s draw with Genoa. The 43-year-old directed a furious tirade at referee Marco Guida when the official declined to award a stoppage-time penalty for a perceived handball by Genoa defender Andreas Granqvist, with the game finishing 1-1. Director general Giuseppe Marotta also invoked a three-week suspension by questioning Guida\'s selection, given the fact the referee hails from Torre Annunziata, a province of Naples, whose Serie A team are Juve\'s nearest challengers. A statement published on legaseriea.it read: \"Antonio Conte is disqualified for two games and fined 10,000 euros for confronting the referee with insulting remarks at the end of the game and repeating them in the changing room shortly afterwards. \"Giuseppe Marotta is banned from pursuing any activity with the Italian Football Federation (FIGC) or representing his club until February 18 for challenging the work of the officials and addressing the referee with an intimidating attitude and insulting remarks.\" From FIFA
