Wenger charged over Sunderland spat
LONDON: Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has been hit with an improper conduct charge following his spat with a match official at the end of his team's draw with Sunderland, the Football Association (FA) confirmed on Monday.
Wenger faces an 8,000 pound fine and a one-match touchline ban if he accepts the charge under the FA's fast-track disciplinary process.
It follows an incident at the Stadium of Light on Saturday when a furious Wenger remonstrated with fourth official Martin Atkinson after Sunderland had equalised in the fifth minute of injury time.
Wenger appeared to gently push Atkinson on the back after Darren Bent had scored 15 seconds after the end of the allotted four minutes of stoppage time. Wenger later denied accosting Atkinson. “Take the pictures and look at it. I complained to nobody,” Wenger insisted in a curt post-match press conference. — AFP
