    Tottenham won the game 2-1 thanks to Harry Kane's late strike.

    An FA spokesperson said: "Tottenham and Brighton have been charged for a mass confrontation that took place during the 58th minute of their Premier League game on Saturday 8 April.

    "It's alleged that both clubs failed to ensure their technical area occupants conducted themselves in an orderly fashion and/or do not behave in a way which is improper.

    "Tottenham and Brighton have until Monday 17 April to respond."
