WREXHAM and Sheffield United have been fined by the FA following a mass confrontation during last month's Carabao Cup first round tie.

Both clubs were charged with failing to control their players following the incident towards the end of the game at Bramall Lane on Tuesday August 13.

Opposing players were involved in a mass melee after United midfielder Sydie Peck appeared to prevent Wrexham’s Jack Marriott from retrieving the ball from the net after Sebastian Revan’s stoppage-time consolation goal for the visitors.

Both clubs admitted that they failed to ensure their players did not behave in an improper and/or provocative way around the 94th minute.

In a statement, the FA said the Blades had been fined £8,500 while Wrexham were charged £2,500 for the incident.

According to the FA, United received a higher fine due to the "high number of SUFC players involved" and "SUFC’s very poor previous disciplinary record - both short and long term".

The Blades won the first round tie 4-2 after falling behind to Will Boyle’s opener, scoring through Auston Trusty, Louie Marsh, Anis Slimane and Lewis Brunt’s own goal before Revan’s late effort.
