No FA ban for Tottenham boss Antonio Conte but Thomas Tuchel handed Chelsea touchline ban

Antonio Conte has been handed a £15,000 fine as a result of his FA charge following the scenes after Tottenham's 2-2 draw at Chelsea on Sunday while Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel has received a one-match ban and a fine.

The Spurs head coach was shown a straight red card along with Tuchel by referee Anthony Taylor after an incident following the final whistle at Stamford Bridge. Conte attempted to shake the hand of the Blues boss but the German gripped his hand rather than letting go, unhappy as he felt the Italian had not looked him in the eyes.

That saw both men go face to face and both dugouts and players came together, although there appeared to be no physical altercations involved. Both Conte and Tuchel had already been yellow carded earlier in the game after a flare up following Tottenham's first equalising goal.
