The German Football Association (DFB) have handed SV Werder Bremen assistant coach Jan Hoepner a one-match touchline ban following his red card in Saturday’s Nordderby against Hamburger SV.

The ban begins half an hour before kick-off in Werder’s next Bundesliga game and ends half an hour after the final whistle. During that time, Hoepner is not permitted within the inner area of the stadium, the changing rooms, the players' tunnel or the corridor leading to the changing rooms. He is also not permitted to have contact with the team, directly or indirectly, within that time period. The ruling is legally binding.
