Antonio Conte has labelled the FA’s misconduct charge on him as ‘soft’ but said he will accept it after his clash with Thomas Tuchel during Sunday’s tense 2-2 draw with Tottenham.
Chelsea manager Tuchel and Tottenham boss Conte twice had to be separated, sparking furious scenes at Stamford Bridge.
The FA had confirmed on Monday night that the pair have been charged with improper conduct.
The Italian, speaking at his pre-match press conference ahead of Saturday’s clash with Wolves, said he will accept the charge but believes the FA's decision was slightly unnecessary.
