Mazzarri cleared for Chelsea tie?

Napoli coach Walter Mazzarri has reportedly had his two-game Champions League touchline ban quashed.

Mazzarri had been hit with the ban after he pushed Villarreal striker Nilmar during a group stage match.

The 50-year-old had expected to sit in the stands for the Italian's Champions League clash with Chelsea on Wednesday, but after sitting out the first leg clash three weeks ago, Mazzarri has been cleared by the Tribunal Arbitral du Sport, according to Goal.com.

Napoli lead 3-1 from the opening leg.
