Surprising!!! Hull City deny FA charge of failing to control players

Hull City have appealed a Football Association charge of failing to control their players during their draw with Leicester City on 14 March.

 

The charge relates to an incident in the 68th minute after Hull defender Alex Bruce was booked following a heavy challenge on Leicester's Riyad Mahrez.
Players from both sides crowded around referee Jonathan Moss after Bruce appeared to play the ball.
The appeal will be heard by an independent regulatory commission.
Hull midfielder Tom Huddlestone was also sent off in the match after being shown two yellow cards.
Tigers manager Steve Bruce said after the game: "There wasn't a nasty challenge in the game, yet we've had five yellow cards and a sending off. I never saw that coming."
