Manchester United fined by The FA after admitting double player failure

Manchester United has been hit with an £82k fine after admitting two breaches of FA rules during Premier League matches in October.

The breaches revolve around contentious incidents during their clashes with Newcastle United and Chelsea last month - both games ending in draws.

First, there was the incident-packed affair with the Magpies with players surrounding the referee following a contentious moment between Callum Wilson and Red Devils' defender Lisandro Martinez. United then repeated the trick in their dramatic 1-1 draw against Chelsea with the referee once again being surrounded following the decision to award the hosts a penalty conceded by Scott McTominay.
