FA rule out Scolari action

The Football Association will not be taking any action against Luiz Felipe Scolari over the Chelsea manager's comments about referee Mike Dean this weekend.

Scolari called for the official to apologise after claiming he made mistakes during Sunday's 2-1 Barclays Premier League defeat by Arsenal. Dean allowed a Robin van Persie equaliser to stand despite suspicions of offside.

The Football Association believe Scolari qualified his remarks and that he had not questioned the integrity of the referee and an FA spokesman said: "We have studied the remarks of Luiz Felipe Scolari and will not be taking any further action."
