Robert Huth accepts Football Association charge

Stoke City defender Robert Huth has accepted a violent conduct charge from the Football Association.

The German international will serve a three-match ban after he was caught striking Fulham defender Philippe Senderos during Saturday's 1-0 defeat at Craven Cottage.

"Stoke City have confirmed that Robert Huth has accepted the charge of violent conduct following an incident in last weekend's game at Craven Cottage," read a statement on the club's official website.

Huth, who was given until 6pm on Wednesday to respond to the charge, will miss his side's games against West Ham United, Newcastle United and West Bromwich Albion.
