During a chaotic few minutes, coach Silva angrily addressed the fourth official before being shown a red card. "It's alleged that Marco Silva used abusive and/or insulting words, and/or gestures and/or behaviours towards the fourth official prior to his dismissal and... after being sent off," the FA said in a statement.
