Chelsea boss Scolari escapes censure over referee comments

Chelsea boss Luiz Felipe Scolari will not face any action from the FA over his comments about referee Mike Dean. Dean allowed a Robin van Persie equaliser to stand despite suspicions of offside.

The Football Association believe Scolari qualified his remarks and that he had not questioned the integrity of the referee.

A spokesman said: "We have studied the remarks of Luiz Felipe Scolari and will not be taking any further action."
