Neto was given his marching orders after collecting two yellow cards in quick succession as the Blues lost 2-1 to the Gunners at the Emirates.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>The Portuguese player was said to have behaved in an &#8220;inappropriate manner&#8221;, including &#8220;failing to leave the pitch promptly and using abusive language towards match officials&#8221;. Neto has since accepted the charges against him.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>A spokesperson for the FA said in a statement: &#8220;Pedro Neto has been suspended for one match and fined \u00a370,000 for misconduct which occurred after he was sent off in Chelsea&#8217;s Premier League game against Arsenal on Sunday 1 March.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>&#8220;After being sent off in the 70th minute, the player is alleged to have engaged in inappropriate behavior, including failing to leave the pitch promptly and verbally abusing match officials.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Pedro Neto later admitted the charges against him. The independent regulatory commission imposed these sanctions following a public hearing, and written reasons for its decision will be published in due course.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Neto will miss Saturday night&#8217;s Premier League clash between Chelsea and Newcastle at Stamford Bridge, despite already serving a one-match suspension for last week&#8217;s game against Aston Villa.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>The Blues winger is under investigation by UEFA after he shoved a ball boy during his team&#8217;s defeat to Paris Saint-Germain. In the second half, Neto, out of frustration, pushed the ball boy and tried to get the ball back.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>He apologized to his players at full-time at the Parc des Princes, but Liam Rosenior admitted in Friday&#8217;s pre-match press conference against Newcastle that it wasn&#8217;t a good look. &#8220;I just saw that incident and the situation doesn&#8217;t look good&#8230; I understand Pedro&#8217;s mindset. He wants to get the ball back into play as soon as possible and he wants to win for the club,&#8221; Rosseniol said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>&#8220;There&#8217;s a way to do it. What I was so impressed by him was that that was his idea and he wanted to apologize right away. Like I said, people make mistakes, whether it&#8217;s a goalkeeper or me as a manager or a player. It&#8217;s important to learn from those mistakes and make sure they don&#8217;t happen again.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/sport\/football\/2181967\/Chelsea-Pedro-Neto-ban-fine-Arsenal\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The FA has confirmed that Pedro Neto will be handed a further one-match ban for &#8220;misconduct&#8221; following the Chelsea winger&#8217;s sending off against Arsenal earlier this month.
