Como’s Marco Curto has been given a 10-match ban by Fifa, with five them of them suspended, for racially abusing Wolves forward Hwang Hee-chan in a pre-season friendly.<\/b><\/p>\n

The incident<\/a> happened in the the second half of the game in Marbella in July – with Hwang’s team-mate Daniel Podence sent off for a punch in the aftermath.<\/p>\n

Wolves complained to the Italian Football Association and to Uefa, which said it was powerless to act because it was not a Uefa match.<\/p>\n

But the Korean Football Association got involved,<\/a> with Hwang a South Korea international, and reported the incident to Fifa.<\/p>\n

“The player Marco Curto was found responsible for discriminatory behaviour and sanctioned with a 10-match suspension,” a Fifa spokesperson said.<\/p>\n

“Serving of half of those matches is suspended for a probation period of two years, and the player is ordered to render community services and undergo training and education with an organisation approved by Fifa.”<\/p>\n

Italian defender Curto, 25, joined Serie B side Cesena on a season-long loan the week after the Wolves match.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
