The conditions of Pep Guardiola's upcoming two-match ban have been outlined ahead of the Carabao Cup final.
On Saturday night, Manchester City sealed their place in the next round of the FA Cup by beating Newcastle United at St. James' Park.
Harvey Barnes had put the hosts 1-0 up, but a brace from Omar Marmoush plus a goal by Savinho sealed a 3-1 win for City.
During the match, Guardiola was booked for confronting fourth official Lewis Smith on the touchline after a foul on Jeremy Doku by Kieran Trippier.

The yellow card was Guardiola's sixth of the season, meaning he will now have to serve a two-match ban.
Looking ahead, City's next two domestic fixtures are against West Ham United in the Premier League on March 14 and then the Carabao Cup final against Arsenal on March 22.
Will Pep Guardiola be banned for the Carabao Cup final against Arsenal?
As per the BBC, Guardiola will not be banned for the Carabao Cup final at Wembley.
This is because the City manager's suspension applies to league and FA Cup matches but not domestic cup finals or European games.
So, Guardiola will be banned for the West Ham match and the FA Cup quarter-final, which will be played on the weekend of April 4-5.
The draw for the last eight of the FA Cup will take place on Monday evening, ahead of West Ham's tie against Brentford at the London Stadium.
What did Pep Guardiola say about his upcoming suspension?
During his post-match press conference, Guardiola spoke about his upcoming ban.
He said: "I will tell you something - we have all the records in this country, all of them, despite everything.
"We have the record of the manager with the most yellow cards. I want all records and now I have it, two-game ban now and I will go on holidays the next two games."
Guardiola added: "There are things after 10 years I cannot understand. Review the action. Of course I'm going to defend Doku and all my teams."
