Soccer:Manchester City defender Kolo Toure has accepted a fine of six weeks' wages in relation to his suspension for failing a drug test, while Carlos Tevez is not expected to contest the club's ruling that he was guilty of misconduct in the Champions League defeat to Bayern Munich.

Toure was handed a six-month ban by the English Football Association in May, backdated to March 2nd, after he tested positive for a prohibited substance.

The 30-year-old, who claimed the positive test came as a result of taking his wife’s diet pills, made his playing comeback from the suspension in September, but last week had an internal disciplinary hearing at City, leading to the club’s announcement today.

City last month fined Tevez four weeks’ wages, later reduced to two weeks’, following intervention by the English Professional Footballers’ Association, after a disciplinary panel found the player guilty of five breaches of contract relating to his behaviour on the bench during the match in Munich on September 27th.

The 27-year-old was also suspended for two weeks - although that punishment was deemed to have already been served - and with the deadline for lodging an appeal passing today, it is understood that Tevez will not be doing so.

Meanwhile, Wigan defender Antolin Alcaraz has accepted his FA misconduct charge for spitting in Sunday’s defeat at Wolves and will serve an automatic three-match ban.

The Paraguay international was caught by television cameras spitting at Richard Stearman towards the end of the Latics’ 3-1 defeat at Molineux.

Although referee Lee Probert did not see the incident at the time video evidence highlighted the offence and Alcaraz was charged by the FA yesterday.

He was given until 6pm today to respond to the charge and did so shortly before the deadline.

Wigan have also said the defender will be subject to the club’s disciplinary process as well.
