(Reuters) - AS Roma coach Jose Mourinho will be able to sit in the dugout for their clash against Juventus on Sunday after his two-game ban has been temporarily suspended following an appeal, the Italian Football Federation (FIGC) said on Saturday.

Mourinho was banned for two games and fined 10,000 euros ($10,632) for his explosive reaction to being sent off in his side's 2-1 defeat by relegation-threatened Cremonese on Tuesday.
