FIFA's disciplinary committee took three hours to conclude that Diego Maradona should be banned from all official football activities for two months. The 49-year-old Argentina coach was also fined almost 25,000 dollars for his outburst following last month's qualifying match against Uruguay. But his punishment could have been far more severe. FIFA took into account the fact that Diego Maradona came to Zurich to apologize and showed sincere remorse.

国际足联纪律委员会通过三个小时的会谈得出结论,认为马拉多纳应该被禁止参加官方足球活动两个月时间.这位49岁的主教练还因上月对阵乌拉圭队比赛中获取世界杯资格后爆粗口而被处25000罚金.对他的惩罚原本可以更加严重,但是国际足联还考虑到马拉多纳后来前往苏黎世道歉并且表现出了真诚的懊悔.
