Maniche banned for 3 matches

Cologne's Portuguese international midfielder Maniche has been suspended for three matches after being sent off in his side's 1-0 Bundesliga defeat to Bayer Leverkusen on Saturday.
The former Porto, Chelsea and Atletico Madrid man received his marching orders in the 86th minute after stamping on Arturo Vidal.
The German FA confirmed that both Maniche and his club have decided not to appeal.
The 31-year-old will miss the forthcoming league games against Bayern Munich, Mainz and Borussia Monchengladbach.
