Atletico Madrid boss Diego Simeone is keeping his own counsel over his eight-match touchline ban.
Simeone was handed the heavy punishment for his antics during Friday's Supercup win over Real Madrid.
Asked about the punishment following Atletico's goalless draw at Rayo Vallecano on Monday night, Simeone said: "I'm not going to make any assessment, I have a lot of respect for those who make the decisions, and silence."
He added: "I don't think that having me on the field would've improved anything. We came from playing on Tuesday and Friday and the effort from these days could be felt in the second half."
