Leeds United and Barnsley have been charged by the FA following their Carabao Cup second round tie at Elland Road on Wednesday night.
The charge relates to an incident in the 67th minute of the contest as Whites right-back Cody Drameh and Liam Kitching came together in front of the South Stand at Elland Road. Their argument kickstarted a melee involving a number of Leeds and Barnsley players, with referee John Brooks being forced to hand out three yellow cards.
Drameh, Kitching and Leeds defender Leo Hjelde went into the book for their part in the scuffle and the FA has consequently charged both clubs for breaking rule E20.1, alleging that both clubs failed to ensure their players conducted themselves in an orderly fashion. Both organisations will have until Thursday, September 1, to respond.
