Chelsea were fined 65,000 pounds and West Brom 35,000 pounds.

The charge referred to the heated aftermath of West Brom's Claudio Yacob escaping a second booking after fouling Diego Costa in the second half of the 2-2 draw at Stamford Bridge.

The game was a fractious affair with firebrand Chelsea striker Costa involved in several spats, including an incident with most of the West Brom team after the final whistle.
