Villa boss Lambert to serve one match ban

Aston Villa boss Paul Lambert has been given a one-match touchline ban after admitting a Football Association improper conduct charge. Lambert has also been given an £8,000 fine for comments made after the5-0 defeat at Manchester City on Saturday.

He was angered by the decision to award the penalty against Andreas Weimann that led to City going 2-0 ahead.

The FA charge related to "language and/or behaviour amounting to improper conduct".
