Capello named coach of the season

MILAN, April 22 (Reuters) - AS Roma coach Fabio Capello was on Monday voted Serie A's coach of the season for 2000-01.
Capello was given the award, the so-called 'golden bench' by his fellow coaches during their annual gathering in Florence.

Last season Capello led AS Roma to their first Italian league title in 18 years.

It is the third time that Capello has won the award having previously been voted top coach in 1991-92 and 1993-94 when he was in charge of AC Milan.

Brescia's veteran coach Carlo Mazzone was given a special award in recognition of his lengthy career.

The 'silver bench' for the top Serie B coach went to Modena's Giovanni De Biasi.
