Mourinho won’t be charged over Southampton sending-off
By Idebaneria Cynthia
Jose Mourinho Manchester United manager will face no punishment from the English Football Association (FA) after being sent off during his side’s 1-0 Premier League victory over Southampton on Saturday.
Deep into stoppage-time, referee Craig Pawson sent Mourinho to the stands after he appeared to step on to the pitch and accidentally collide with fourth official Mike Jones.

The FA received Pawson’s report on Monday, however, and has decided no further action is necessary.
United maintained their unbeaten start in the league and are second in the standings, behind Manchester City on goals difference.
