Following the rejection of Arsenal's appeal regarding an incident during their FA Cup victory over Oxford United, a £40,000 fine must be paid.

Eddie Nketiah scored twice as Mikel Arteta's team defeated the opposition 3-0 earlier this month to advance to the fourth round.

However, the Football Association (FA) later reprimanded Arsenal for failing to control their players after they surrounded referee David Coote in the first half to demand a penalty.

Arsenal filed an appeal against the accusation, but it was denied, thus the club will now be required to pay the fine.

"Arsenal FC has been fined £40,000 after its players surrounded a match official during the FA Cup tie against Oxford United FC on Monday 9 January 2023," read a statement from the FA.

"Arsenal FC denied an allegation from the FA that the club had failed to ensure its players conducted themselves in an orderly fashion during the 34th minute, and the club also requested a hearing.

"An Independent Regulatory Commission subsequently upheld the allegation and imposed the club's fine.

"Its written reasons for these decisions will be published in due course."

Following a fine for their behavior against Newcastle United in a Premier League match, Arsenal has now been charged with two financial penalties in January.

When a no-penalty call was made by the authorities in the dying minutes of a 0-0 draw, the Gunners were also given a warning for losing control of their players.
