Arsene Wenger Set To Escape FA Charge Over “Little Push” On Jose Mourinho


Arsene Wenger looks set to escape disciplinary action from the English Football Association for pushing Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho during his Arsenal side's 2-0 defeat at Stamford Bridge yesterday.

Tensions rose on the touchline when Wenger made his way into the Chelsea technical area, pushing Mourinho as he attempted to get past him to check on Alexis Sanchez, who had been fouled by Gary Cahill.

It led to a touchline spat with angry words being exchanged between the benches and the fourth official having to intervene.

However, according to the Press Association, the FA is unlikely to take any action against Wenger, who admitted post-match to a "little push" on Mourinho.

The FA could reconsider its stance if the referee's report on the game highlights something which is judged to deem action.

However, England football's governing body is expected to write to both clubs about the game being delayed by 15 minutes.

The culprit was a flare being left outside the entrance for away supporters, which meant the turnstiles were closed to allow the smoke to clear before fans could be allowed to continue filtering into the ground.
