The more video footage that emerged after the live feed finished, the worse the [Chelsea v West Ham](https://www.claretandhugh.info/chelsea-vs-west-ham-preview-team-news-predicted-line-ups/) fracas in the last few minutes appeared.
Amazingly the incident ended up with ‘just’ one red and one yellow card with West Ham’s Jean Clair Todibo being the only Hammers player given his marching orders, when to be honest Mavropanos and Traore could easily have made it three.
Inevitably the ramifications are far reaching as now the Football Association has had time to consider its own response to the incident and according to [football.london](https://www.football.london/chelsea-fc/news/breaking-chelsea-west-ham-charged-33364406) has responded:
_“Chelsea and West Ham United have both been charged by the Football Association for failing to control their players in Saturday’s Premier League game.”_
_“The FA has confirmed that both clubs have been charged, as Chelsea’s players were “improper and/or provocative”, while West Ham’s players were “improper and/or provocative and/or violent”. Both clubs have until Friday to provide their respective responses.”_
Hefty fines will inevitably follow once the deadline for responses has been reached: Both clubs have until the 6th February to respond.
