Queens Park Rangers hit with FA charge

The Football Association has charged Queens Park Rangers for failing to control their players in last weekend's game against Manchester City.

The charge relates to Charlie Austin's second disallowed goal in the eighth minute, resulting in a number of QPR players allegedly failing to conduct themselves in a proper manner.

Austin previously had a goal disallowed for offside, only for the striker to have a second goal ruled out a couple of minutes later due to Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart touching the ball twice while taking a free kick.

The decision reportedly angered QPR players who argued that the goal should have stood.

The club has until 6pm on November 17, 2014 to respond to the charge.
