Francesco Totti will miss Roma's next four Coppa Italia games for his violent behavior in last week's final against Inter Milan.

The 33-year-old aimed a vicious kick against Mario Balotelli and was accordingly sent off in the 1-0 defeat.

Totti, who scored both goals in Sunday's 2-1 win over Cagliari, is fortunate to take part in Roma's crucial final-day visit to Chievo.

Inter duo Balotelli and Christian Chievo were also handed one-match suspensions for protesting against the referee in the cup final.

One week before the Serie A finale, Roma are two points behind leaders Inter, who visit relegated Siena next week.
