Arsenal's Gabriel banned for one match

Arsenal defender Gabriel Paulista is given a one-match ban by the FA for improper conduct.

Arsenal defender Gabriel Paulista has been handed a one-match ban by the Football Association after admitting to a charge of improper conduct.

The 24-year-old was sent off by referee Mike Dean in last weekend's 2-0 defeat to Chelsea, but later had the red card rescinded after the Gunners won their appeal against the decision.

The Brazilian's three-game suspension was therefore revoked, but he has now been banned for one match for a separate charge of improper conduct, as well as being fined £10,000 and warned over his future behaviour.

An FA statement read: "The charge relates to Gabriel's behaviour following his dismissal in or around the 45th minute of the game against Chelsea."

Gabriel will now miss Arsenal's trip to high-flying Leicester City this Saturday.
