Following a heated altercation at half-time, both Newcastle United and Aston Villa have been charged by the FA for failing to control their players and staff.
Speaking about the incident, Newcastle head coach Howe described it as a '20-man half-time melee,' admitting it escalated unintentionally despite attempts to calm it down.
Aston Villa manager Emery expressed his outrage over Duran's sending off, which fueled tensions in the first half and contributed to the volatile situation during the break.
Both clubs have been given until January 13 to respond to the charges stemming from the incident, which involved club staff and players from both sides.
