No action from FA for Aguero's Horrific two footed challenge on David Luiz!!
Sergio Agüero will not face any retrospective action from the Football
Association for his two-footed tackle on David Luiz during Manchester City's 2-1 FA Cup
semi-final win over Chelsea at
Wembley on Sunday.
The incident occurred in the 82nd-minute of the tie as
Agüero made the challenge on David Luiz after the defender had previously
appeared to elbow him. Chris Foy, the referee, awarded Chelsea a free-kick, and while it was unclear
if this was for Agüero's offence, as the official is deemed to have seen the
episode as a whole, under the FA's regulations the incident cannot be
re-refereed following the match.
If the challenge had occurred off the ball and away from
Foy's field of vision then the striker would probably have had a case to answer.Afterwards, David Luiz called on
Agüero to apologise.

The
FA ruling means Agüero has escaped a potential three-match ban, one game of
which would have been Sunday's trip to Tottenham Hotspur, who are competing
with Chelsea for a top-four finish to qualify for Champions League football
next season. Spurs are fifth with 58 points and stand behind Chelsea on goal
difference only.
