Ruben Olivera: Three-match ban

Fiorentina midfielder Ruben Olivera has been banned for three matches by the Italian football league for violent conduct.

Olivera was sent off in Tuesday's 2-0 Serie A defeat at Bologna after he appeared to catch Bologna's Alessandro Diamanti in the face with an elbow early in the second half.

The Uruguayan will miss Sunday's game at Lazio as well as the league clashes with Cesena and Parma.

Fiorentina coach Delio Rossi will also be without defenders Mattia Cassani and Alessandro Gamberini for this weekend's game in Rome, with both players also suspended.

Why RvP Leaving Isn't The End Of Days

here has only been 3 players who made me hold my breath in dread when they picked the ball up anywhere near our penalty area...in their prime Scholes and Giggs... and always Drogba. Awesome player who on his day was the best striker in the world in my opinion.

remember him scoring a 25-yarder, either the season just gone or the one before, against Bolton at the Reebok. I've never seen a ball hit that hard before in my entire life. You could almost feel the shockwave from his foot contacting it 40 yards away in the stands. Didier Droga. You might not have loved him, but you just had to be in awe of him.
