The English Football Association says it has fined Chelsea and Arsenal
a total of £70,000 ($107,000) ''for failing to ensure their players
conducted themselves in an orderly fashion'' during a Premier League
match between the two teams at Stamford Bridge last month.
Chelsea has been fined £40,000 ($61,000) and Arsenal £30,000
($46,000) for incidents from the 44th minute to the 47th of the game on
Sept. 19, with both sides being warned about their future conduct.
Chelsea won the game 2-0 but the players clashed when Arsenal defender Gabriel Paulista was shown a red card by referee Mike Dean following an incident with Diego Costa. The FA has since revoked the card.
