FA to probe Sommeil tackle

The Football Association will contact Alan Wiley this morning for his observations on David Sommeil’s disgraceful tackle on Tottenham’s Lee Young-pyo during last night’s Premiership encounter at Manchester City.

Spurs boss Martin Jol described the challenge as ‘horrific’, claiming Lee would be out for at least two weeks after sustaining bruising above his knee from Sommeil’s studs-first tackle after Wiley had blown for an earlier foul.
