UEFA have officially dismissed the appeal filed by Bodø/Glimt to lift the suspension on their manager Kjetil Knutsen following the incident in the aftermath of the first leg of the Conference League quarterfinals against Roma.
Bodø/Glimt filed the appeal after concluding that the decision by UEFA was not correct.
As a result, Knutsen will be in the stands for Thursday night, serving his one-match suspension.
Roma assistant Nuno Santos will also not take part in Roma’s second leg vs Bodø/Glimt as he was identified as one of the parties at fault for the heated exchange after the final whistle in Norway last week.
