Jose Mourinho avoids FA charge after kicking water bottle in crowd during Manchester United's 3-2 win over Crystal Palace

Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho will not face punishment from the Football Association after he kicked a water bottle into the crowd during the Reds' 3-2 win over Crystal Palace.

Mourinho's side started slowly at Selhurst Park and found themselves 2-0 down in the first half, pushing the Portuguese boss to take out his frustration on a nearby water bottle early in the second.

But, according to the Times, Mourinho will not be retrospectively banned as he was last season after a similar incident occurred during a match against West Ham at Old Trafford.
