Arsenal and Tottenham charged with failing to control players during north London derby

Arsenal and Tottenham have been charged with failing to ensure their players conducted themselves in an orderly fashion during Sunday's north London derby.

The Football Association has sanctioned them for a mass brawl that followed Eric Dier's goal in a feisty Premier League game at Emirates Stadium, which Arsenal won 4-2.

Both sets of players and benches were involved and Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino sprinted down the touchline to play peacemaker.

The clubs have until 6pm on Thursday to respond to the charge.
