Arsenal have been fined £65,000 by the Football Association (FA) for failing to control their players during their 1-0 Premier League win against Wolves on 25 January.
The charge stemmed from an incident in the 43rd minute, when Arsenal players surrounded referee Michael Oliver after he showed Myles Lewis-Skelly a straight red card for a challenge on Matt Doherty.

VAR Darren England upheld the decision, ruling it as serious foul play.
Arsenal admitted to failing to ensure their players “did not behave in an improper manner,” leading to the fine imposed by an independent regulatory commission.
The club later appealed the red card, and Lewis-Skelly’s three-match ban was overturned.
Meanwhile, after the match, PGMOL (Professional Game Match Officials Limited) revealed that police were investigating threats and abuse directed at Michael Oliver and his family on social media.
