Fulham manager Marco Silva and striker Aleksandar Mitrovic say they regret their actions and have apologised to referee Chris Kavanagh following their red cards at Manchester United.
Silva was charged with abusive behaviour towards match officials after the 3-1 FA Cup quarter-final loss.
Mitrovic, 28, was charged with violent and improper conduct after his straight red card for pushing referee Kavanagh.
“I should have controlled my own emotions better,” said Silva.
In a statement, the 45-year-old Silva added: “I regret what happened, and I have spoken to Chris Kavanagh to apologise. He knows that I respect him and the job he has to do.
“Unfortunately, we did not see eye-to-eye on the day, but I recognise that he is one of the top referees in this country and I know that when our paths cross again, there will be mutual respect between us.”
