The FA have decided not to take any further action against the linesman who elbowed Andy Robertson at the weekend.

Liverpool clawed back a draw at Anfield on Sunday in a potentially title-deciding game for the Gunners.

But there was a hugely controversial moment at half-time when the linesman bizarrely elbowed Robertson in the throat.

The FA have now released a statement claiming that they will not take any further action against Constantine Hazidakis.

“We have thoroughly reviewed all of the evidence in relation to the recent incident at Anfield involving the Liverpool defender Andrew Robertson and match official Constantine Hatzidakis, and we will be taking no further action.

“Our comprehensive process involved reviewing detailed statements from Liverpool and the PGMOL, as well as multiple angles of video footage, in relation to both the incident and its surrounding circumstances.”
