Zlatan Ibrahmovic and his old colleague Romelu Lukaku have both gotten away from serious sanctions with just a slap on the wrist, as they both get 1-game ban after their bust-up at the recent Milan Derby in the Italian Cup quarter-final last week, according to Sports Court on Friday, January 29.
Both were able to avoid any further punishment with both players receiving just a single-game ban each. AC Milan’s Ibrahimovic was dismissed for a second yellow card after the head-to-head confrontation with Inter Milan’s Lukaku, who was also booked.

As Lukaku had already been booked in the competition, he misses Tuesday’s semi-final with Juventus through an accumulation of cards.
Inter Milan had progressed 2-1 from the fiery last-eight clash with their city rivals.
Ibrahimovic received the standard ban for a red card which will apply for the next Italian Cup match he could play.
Zlatan Ibrahmovic also denied racism played a part in the incident, tweeting,
“In Zlatan’s world there is no place for racism.”
