Manchester United discover FA punishment after 'mass confrontation' charge vs Crystal Palace

Manchester United have been fined £55,000 by the Football Association following a mass confrontation during their Premier League victory over Crystal Palace at Old Trafford earlier this month.

United won the Premier League meeting with goals from Bruno Fernandes (pen) and Marcus Rashford - but there was a notable flashpoint on 67 minutes which resulted in Casemiro being sent off for throttling Will Hughes in amongst the scuffle. It came after an initial incident between Antony and Palace star Jeffrey Schlupp.

Both players were cautioned by on-field referee Andre Marriner as he subsequently was asked to check VAR before showing a red card to Casemiro. He went on to miss three matches.
