体坛英语资讯：Arsenal and Hull charged over brawl

England's Football Association (FA)has charged Arsenal and Hull City over their failure to control their players here on Wednesday. Players from the two clubs were involved in a melee in their Premier League meet on December 19 when Arsenal won 3-0.

The brawl broke out just before half-time when Arsenal's Samir Nasri appeared to tread on the ankle of Hull's Richard Garcia.

Stephen Hunt then clashed with Nasri, with Gunners keeper Manuel Almunia running the length of the field to get involved.

Referee Steve Bennett eventually restored order and then booked both Hunt and Nasri.

The clubs have until January 13 to respond.
