Hull City fined by Football Association for failing to control their players

Hull City have been fined £20,000 after admitting they failed to control their players during Saturday's 2-0 defeat to Arsenal.

Hull players surrounded referee Mark Clattenburg after Arsenal left-back Kieran Gibbs was only booked for fouling Lazar Markovic when the winger was clear on goal.

That resulted in a Football Association misconduct charge, which the club have admitted.
