Huddersfield Town manager David Wagner and Leeds United boss Garry Monk have been given touchline bans by the Football Association following their clash at the John Smith's Stadium.

The pair clashed earlier this month after Huddersfield scored a last-minute winner to secure a 2-1 victory over Leeds, with Wagner sprinting the entire length of the touchline to celebrate with his own players.

Wagner has received a two-match suspension, a £6,000 fine and warned to his future conduct.
