Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel has been charged by the Football Association after an altercation with Spurs manager Antonio Conte.
The pair clashed on the sidelines, with the Spurs boss celebrating infront of Tuchel for their first equaliser, resulting in a yellow card each.
After the full-time whistle, both head coaches were dismissed for a second altercation, with Tuchel holding onto Conte’s hand during a handshake before the pair had to be separated by members of each other's backroom staff.

However, it was not just Conte who Tuchel was furious with.
Speaking after the match, Tuchel continued to criticise the referee for his performance in the match.
He told Chelsea TV: "The referee had a huge say and unfortunately everything went in the opposite direction so, both goals should never, never stand, never for me.

"It’s incredible and unbelievable how this can happen in the times we are in.
"The first goal is offside, not to speak about the foul on Kai in the possession build-up towards the goal. But the goal itself is a clear, clear, clear offside from Richarlison.
"The second one, in the build-up, is an absolutely fair challenge from Reece on Harry Kane, they get a very, very dangerous position for a free-kick and from that they get the corners.

“Then when is it allowed to pull hair of opponents? If this is not a red card, if we check and the player can stay and can take the decisive corner, I’m sorry this is without words."
It remains to be seen as to whether Chelsea will launch a formal complaint regarding Anthony Taylor’s performance.
Since the match, it has now been confirmed that Tuchel and Conte have both been charged by the FA.
A statement read: “Thomas Tuchel and Antonio Conte have both been charged with a breach of FA Rule E3, following the Premier League fixture between Chelsea FC and Tottenham Hotspur FC on Sunday 14 August 2022.

“It is alleged that the behaviour of both managers was improper following the end of the fixture.
“Thomas Tuchel and Antonio Conte have until Thursday 18 August 2022 to provide their respective responses.”
It remains to be seen as to whether the Blues will appeal the fine, with Tuchel unable to be on the sideline for Chelsea’s next clash at Elland Road when they face Leeds United at the weekend.
The German will most likely return when Chelsea face Leicester City in the next home match for the Blues.
