Chelsea striker Diego Costa has been banned for three matches for stamping on Liverpool's Emre Can.

The 26-year-old will miss Saturday's Premier League clash with Manchester City at Stamford Bridge as well as games against Aston Villa and Everton.

The incident, which occurred in front of the dugouts but was missed by the match officials, was subsequently reviewed on video by referee Michael Oliver.

Chelsea cannot appeal against the decision reached by the independent commission hearing.
