The Portuguese chief was sent to the stands in the Championship fixture, which took place on December 2, after complaining about referee Mike Jones’ decision not to award the Owls a late penalty.

Carvalhal requested a personal hearing after being charged by the Football Association on Tuesday. He met with an Independent Regulatory Commission today.

A statement on the Football Association’s website read: “Sheffield Wednesday manager Carlos Carvalhal has been banned from the touchline for one match with immediate effect and fined £3,000.

“The decision of the Independent Regulatory Commission today follows his dismissal during the game against Hull City on 2 December 2017.”

Carvalhal will serve his suspension in the Owls’ home encounter with Championship leaders Wolverhampton Wanderers this Friday.

Carvalhal has already served a two-match touchline ban this season following his dismissal against Bolton Wanderers last August.
