Ferguson and Nani to learn punishment

Sir Alex Ferguson and Nani will discover what punishments they face from the fall-out of Manchester United’s Champions League exit to Real Madrid today.Nani will definitely get a one-match ban for the red card he picked up for a high tackle on Alvaro Arbeloa. Uefa do have the power to increase that ban, although given the dismissal was widely viewed as being exceptionally harsh, it would be a surprise if it was extended.Ferguson is in hot water after failing to attend the mandatory post-match press conference, an offence which in extreme cases can bring a touchline ban. The United boss was furious with Turkish referee Cuneyt Cakir over the red card which he felt swung the tie in Real’s favour. United No 2 Mike Phelan said at the time Ferguson was too “distraught” to face the media.
