UEFA suspend Luiz Adriano for one Champions League encounter as a result of his actions against Nordsjaelland.

Shakhtar Donetsk forward Luiz Adriano has been handed a one-match Champions League suspension.

UEFA have made the decision following an incident during Shakhtar's 5-2 victory over Nordsjaelland last week.

Rather than returning the ball to Nordsjaelland after their striker Morten Nordstrand had been down receiving treatment, Adriano instead went through on goal and scored to level up proceedings at one goal apiece.

The governing body have described his actions as a "violation of the principles of conduct" and have also ordered him to complete one day of community football service.

As a result, he will now miss his club's next group fixture against Juventus in December.
