ATHENS (AA) – PAOK head coach Razvan Lucescu was banned from football for four months by the Hellenic Football Federation Disciplinary Committee after being found in violation of disciplinary rules.

Four members of his technical staff were also suspended for four months and fined €15,000 ($15,500) each, the committee said in a statement on Monday.

In the security camera footage, it was seen that after three opposition AEK fans showed their jerseys to the bus carrying PAOK players and technical staff, Lucescu and some PAOK members got out of the vehicle, went to confront the AEK fans, and attempted to physically intervene.
