Following Sunday’s heated Tottenham-Chelsea derby, the English Football Association (FA) has charged both Thomas Tuchel, the manager of Chelsea, and Antonio Conte, the manager of Tottenham Hotspur, of misconduct.
The two coaches got into a number of fights throughout the game at Stamford Bridge, which finished in a 2-2 tie, before they were both dismissed for an incident surrounding their post-game handshake.
The two have been charged for “improper behavior” at the end of the game, the FA said in a statement.
