Both Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur have been charged with failure to control their players after Sunday's fiery north London derby, the FA announced Monday.
The charge relates to the 32nd minute of the game, after Eric Dier had equalized for Spurs, when a melee broke out on the touchline as the visiting players celebrated. Players, substitutes, and staff on both sides were involved in the incident.
The clubs have until 1 p.m. ET on Thursday to respond.
More to come.
