|  UEFA bans Drogba 4 matches for referee outburst
UEFA has suspended Chelsea striker Didier Drogba for four matches because of his outburst toward the referee after his team was eliminated in the semifinals of the Champions League. European soccer’s governing body also suspended defender Jose Bosingwa three matches for making offensive comments about Norwegian referee Tom Henning Ovrebo. UEFA says Wednesday that Drogba’s ban was six matches, with the last two deferred over a probationary period of two years. Bosingwa’s suspension was four matches, with one deferred. Chelsea was ordered to pay $138,400 for the improper conduct of its players and fans. The May 6 match ended in a 1-1 draw, sending Barcelona into the final on away goals.
