Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has been fined by the Football Association after being found guilty of improper conduct.
The charge relates to an incident during the Blues' defeat to Aston Villa in which the Portuguese tactician entered the field of play after a scuffle following Chelsea midfielder Ramires' sending off.
Mourinho had requested a personal hearing to plead his case, but he was unsuccessful in convincing the FA of his innocence.
"Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has been fined £8,000 and warned as to his future conduct following an independent regulatory commission hearing," the FA said in a statement.
"Mourinho denied a breach of FA rule E3 in that his behaviour in re-entering the field of play and approaching the match referee (Foy) in an attempt to speak to him, in or around the 90th minute of the game against Aston Villa on March 15, 2014, amounted to improper conduct.

"However, the charge was found proven at a personal hearing on Wednesday, April 9."
