**Kudus’ Violent Conduct Leads to FA Charges Against Tottenham**
Even though West Ham had a player sent off during the weekend match, Tottenham Hotspur has now also faced charges due to the altercation that unfolded on the pitch.
Despite West Ham being the team to receive a red card over the weekend, Tottenham Hotspur has also been charged following the chaos during their match.
**Kudus Sparks Chaos**
As Spurs led 4-1 and the game neared its end, the excitement of the London derby seemed to be winding down. However, a seemingly innocuous collision between Mohammed Kudus and Micky van de Ven escalated when Kudus struck the Dutchman in the face.
This incident led to a scuffle on the pitch, with Pape Matar Sarr being hit by Kudus, Richarlison taking an accidental blow, and Brennan Johnson confronting several West Ham players.
Kudus received a yellow card initially, but after a VAR review, referee Andy Madley issued a straight red card. He will face a three-match suspension, which could be extended if the FA decides further action is warranted.
**FA Charges Both Clubs**
The latest update reveals that the FA has charged both West Ham and Tottenham Hotspur, as well as Kudus himself. The FA’s statement noted: “Tottenham Hotspur, West Ham, and Mohammed Kudus have been charged following their Premier League match on October 19. Tottenham Hotspur allegedly failed to ensure their players behaved appropriately around the 82nd minute.”
West Ham faces a similar charge, while Kudus is cited for “improper conduct” and “violent behavior.” All parties must respond to the charges by October 24.
**Spurs Should Appeal**
It’s surprising to see Spurs included in these charges, as their players did little wrong. Kudus was essentially the only player to act out, and it seems he should face individual penalties without any repercussions for the teams involved.
