Mixu Paatelainen's United fought back from two goals down to draw with Dundee

Dundee United manager Mixu Paatelainen has been given a suspended two-match ban after "shouting and gesticulating" towards Dundee fans.

The incident took place near the end of his side's 2-2 derby draw at Tannadice on 20 March.

The touchline ban will only take effect if Paatelainen commits a further breach of Scottish FA disciplinary rules before the end of 2016.

United, who are bottom of the Scottish Premiership, host Hamilton on Sunday.

The SFA charge, external said of Paatelainen: "In that on or around the 91st minute you committed misconduct by shouting and gesticulating at away supporters."
