Chelsea, Spurs fined heavily
Chelsea and Tottenham have been fined £375,000 ($540,000, 476,000 euros) and £225,000 ($324,000, 286 euros) respectively for failing to control their players during a feisty 2-2 draw at Stamford Bridge earlier this month.
The tempestuous London derby boiled over as Chelsea came from two goals down to secure the point that ended Tottenham's hopes of winning the Premier League.
Tottenham midfielder Mousa Dembele was handed a six-match ban after gouging Chelsea striker Diego Costa's eye during one of several ugly mass brawls.
Referee Mark Clattenburg did not punish Dembele for his actions, but television replays caught the Belgium international attacking Costa.
There were 12 yellow cards in total and Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino at one stage rushed onto the pitch to separate Tottenham's Danny Rose and Chelsea's Willian.
The feuding continued after the final whistle when Rose was involved in another incident that prompted a brawl involving players and staff from both clubs and featured Chelsea interim manager Guus Hiddink being pushed to the floor.
