Tottenham expected to face another charge following Rodrigo Bentancur red card

Tottenham Hotspur is expected to face an FA charge for failing to control their players following Rodrigo Bentancur's red card against Manchester United, according to former referee Keith Hackett. Bentancur received a red card from referee Stuart Attwell for headbutting Luke Shaw, sparking a mass confrontation involving players from both clubs. As a result of the dismissal, the Uruguayan midfielder faces a three-match suspension, which includes an upcoming derby against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on October 24.

Hackett stated that both Tottenham and Manchester United will likely be charged by English football's governing body due to the post-incident melee. Despite the red card, Tottenham head coach Roberto De Zerbi defended Bentancur's display of passion, revealing that he kissed the midfielder after the match and praised the team's energized response while playing with 10 players.
