FA charge Norwich and Cardiff over Fer furore

Cardiff players were incensed after Norwich's Leroy Fer put the ball into the back of the net when the Welsh side were expecting him to pass back to goalkeeper David Marshall.

The visitors had kicked the ball out of play so Norwich midfielder Alex Tettey could receive treatment in injury time.

An FA statement said: "Both Norwich City and Cardiff City have been charged by The FA for failing to ensure their players conducted themselves in an orderly fashion.

"It follows an incident which occurred in or around the 94th minute of their fixture on Saturday October 26, 2013.

"Both clubs have until 6pm on 4 November 2013 to respond to the charge."
