The Football Association are still deliberating over possible charges in the wake of Monday’s stormy draw between Chelsea and Tottenham.

Both clubs are expected to be charged for failing to control their players after a series of confrontations during the game and at full-time.

Several individuals could face further sanction with Mousa Dembele under scrutiny for an incident in which he appeared to eye-gouge Diego Costa.

One report suggested he could face a 10-game suspension but Standard Sport understands any suspension is likely to be considerably smaller.

Monday night’s clash saw Tottenham run out of time in the title race, as the 2-2 draw crowned Claudio Ranieri’s Leicester City as champions with two games to spare.

With the game carrying such significance, tensions were always likely to run high, but it escalated into player melee at the full time whistle which saw Chelsea interim boss Guus Hiddink fall to the ground.

As revealed yesterday, Standard Sport has been told that it was Cesc Fabregas who triggered the tunnel bust-up at full time, although one counter-claim suggests it was Tottenham forward Erik Lamela, who sparked the confrontation.
