West Bromwich Albion winger James McClean has escaped punishment by the Football Association following his antics at the end of his side's 1-0 win over Sunderland.
The Baggies secured a narrow victory over the Black Cats thanks to contentious strike from Saido Berahino, but McClean chose to goad the visiting supporters at the final whistle.
Sunderland players Danny Graham and Lee Cattermole reacted to the incident that caused a melee on the pitch, which was only resolved when Craig Gardner dragged the 26-year-old away.
The FA has decided against charging the Republic of Ireland winger, but he has been warned over his future conduct.
Baggies boss Tony Pulis branded McClean as "not the sharpest tool in the box" following the incident.
