Costa and Gabriel both charged by the FA

The latest Diego Costa saga has reached its outcome. The striker has been charged by the FA. The FA have also charged both Chelsea and Arsenal for failing to control their players after the heated affair between the two clubs.

This is in relation to the brawls that took place after controversial moments in the match, and the altogether disarray of the players and their tempers. Both clubs may face a fine if the FA chooses to charge them. Gabriel has been charged with improper conduct following his reaction after his ending off, whilst Santi Carzola has escaped with only a warning for his actions after his dismissal. The clubs and Gabriel have until 6 pm on Thursday evening to respond to the charges.

Diego Costa has been charged with violent conduct for his clash with Gunners defender Laurent Koscielny. The incident will be looked over by a panel of three former referees, and a unanimous decision is made before the FA will take action. Costa has until 6 pm on Tuesday to respond the accusations.
