The FA have charged Manchester United after their players surrounded referee Chris Kavanagh during their 3-1 FA Cup win over Fulham on Sunday.
Erik ten Hag's side were 1-0 down in the clash when Jadon Sancho rounded Cottagers goalkeeper Bernd Leno, before his shot was blocked on the line by Willian.
However, the Brazilian had stopped the shot with his hand, with Kavanagh originally awarding a corner.
This led to angry remonstrations from United players who pointed out to the referee that this was a clear handball.
After VAR intervened, they advised Kavanagh to re-look at the incident and a spot kick was awarded along with a straight red card for Willian.
