Leicester charged £20k for melee

Leicester City have been charged £20,000 by the Football Association for failing to control their players in last weekend's Premier League clash against Aston Villa.

Both clubs were charged by the English governing body earlier this week following the incident in Leicester's 1-0 win last Saturday.

A scuffle broke out between both sets of players when Matty James and Villa's Ciaran Clark were sent off for separate offences.

A statement from the FA said: "Leicester City have been find £20,000 after admitting an FA charge of failing to ensure their players conducted themselves in an orderly fashion and/or refrained from provocative behaviour."

The Premier League outfit admitted the charge.
