The FA are investigating an altercation between Arsenal and Aston Villa analysts during the Gunners’ win on Saturday.
Arsenal had drawn 2-2 before added time at Villa Park but scored twice to secure a 4-2 win that sent them top of the Premier League.
An altercation broke out in the press box between Arsenal analyst Miguel Molina and Villa’s Victor Manas after Emi Martinez’s own goal made it 3-2 against Arsenal.
The Villa Manas analyst, who previously worked at Arsenal when Unai Emery was in charge, was reportedly angered by Molina’s celebrations.
The pair clashed in the press box and stewards stepped in to diffuse the situation. Molina then allegedly left the area of his own accord. Manas and Molina also reportedly spoke after the match to clear things up.
The FA, however, are investigating the incident to fully understand what happened in the stands at Villa Park.
Asked about the situation after the match, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta said: “Like everything that happens in the stands. We will look into it, fix it and take action if necessary.”
Villa manager Emery was also asked about the situation at his post-match press conference, but was unaware of the incident at the time.
