Southampton hit with Football Association charge

Southampton have been charged by the Football Association for failing to control their players in last weekend's 0-0 draw with Norwich City.

A number of Saints players reacted angrily to referee Mark Clattenburg handing Norwich a penalty in the final minute that was missed by Grant Holt.

A statement from the Football Association read: "The FA has today charged Southampton with failing to control their players following the awarding of a penalty to Norwich during the match at Carrow Road on Saturday 9 March.

"The club has until 4pm on Friday 15 March to respond to the charge."

Southampton currently sit in 16th position in the Premier League table.
