Aleksandar Mitrovic, a Fulham football player, could be facing a lengthy punishment after being expelled for acting violently during the team’s FA Cup quarterfinal match against Manchester United.

Mitrovic shoved referee Chris Kavanagh during a tumultuous few minutes that eventually led to the dismissal of two other Fulham players, Willian and head coach Marco Silva.
The Football Association (FA) denounced Mitrovic’s termination as “clearly insufficient” and charged that he used improper, abusive, insulting, and threatening words and/or behavior.
The FA has also accused Silva of breaking a number of rules, including using abusive and/or insulting language, gestures, or behavior toward the match referee and fourth official.

Fulham has also been accused of failing to ensure that its players behaved properly. The matter has drawn particular attention, and more disciplinary action may be implemented.
