LONDON (Reuters) - Manchester City defender Bacary Sagna was fined 40,000 pounds on Tuesday and warned about his future conduct after a post on social media that appeared to accuse a referee of bias.

The French international was charged with misconduct by the FA for his "10 against 12... but still fighting and winning as a team" Instagram post after City beat Burnley 2-1 in the Premier League on Jan. 2.
