Mourinho entered the field of play in the final minutes of the 1-0 defeat at Villa Park after Ramires was shown a straight red card for a challenge on Karim El Ahmadi close to both benches.

The Portuguese coach briefly spoke to referee Chris Foy before being sent to the stands, and later blamed the official for his handling of the match, although he was not charged for those comments.

An FA statement said that Mourinho had denied a breach of Rule E3, but was found guilty in a personal hearing.
