It happened after Willian blocked a Jadon Sancho shot with his hand, leading to the Brazilian being shown a straight red card after a VAR review and conceding a penalty.
THE BIGGER PICTURE: Mitrovic has already been charged with violent and improper conduct while Silva was accused used of using allegedly abusive language and Fulham were charged for not controlling their players.
