Thomas Tuchel and Antonio Conte were charged on Monday by the Football Association with improper behavior for their post-match scuffle at Stamford Bridge following the feisty 2-2 draw between Chelsea and Tottenham in the Premier League.

The managers, who had already had a heated clash in the technical area during the game, went head-to-head after the final whistle when the traditional handshake went awry, setting off pushing and shoving. Both Chelsea's Tuchel and Tottenham's Conte were shown red cards.
