Interim Tottenham<\/a> manager Igor Tudor has been charged with misconduct over his claim that referee Thomas Bramall favoured the “home team” in Spurs’ 2-1 Premier League loss at Fulham<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Tudor hit out after his relegation-threatened side were beaten on 1 March, saying Bramall “doesn’t understand football”.<\/p>\n

The Croat had been angered by the Cottagers’ first goal, which he believed happened because of a push by Raul Jimenez on Radu Dragusin before Harry Wilson put the ball into the net.<\/p>\n

Speaking to the BBC after the match,<\/a> Tudor said: “I didn’t like the referee today, too much of a home team referee. I didn’t feel well with him.<\/p>\n

“All the decisions were on their side. He doesn’t understand football, the feeling of what is wrong and what is right.<\/p>\n

“He [Jimenez] was not thinking about the ball, he was thinking how to cheat, he cheated the player, was pushing, it was cheating and it’s a foul. Ninety-nine of 100 people will say it’s a foul, it’s so obvious.”<\/p>\n

The Football Association said Tudor “allegedly acted in an improper manner during a post-match interview by making comments that imply bias and\/or question integrity and\/or are personally offensive in relation to a match official”.<\/p>\n

Spurs and the 47-year-old have until Monday to reply to the charge.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Interim Tottenham manager Igor Tudor has been charged with misconduct over his claim that referee Thomas Bramall favoured…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":551122,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[563],"tags":[64,63,596,85],"class_list":["post-551121","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-football","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-football","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/551121","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=551121"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/551121\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/551122"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=551121"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=551121"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=551121"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
