The FA have cleared Arsenal of any wrongdoing after reviewing their celebrations caused by Reiss Nelson's stoppage time winner against Bournemouth last weekend.

In what emerged a pivotal moment in this season's Premier League title race, Nelson fired Arsenal 3-2 ahead in the 97th-minute at the Emirates, sparking delirious scenes of jubilation both on and off the pitch.

Referee Chris Kavanagh subsequently made a note of the celebrations in his match report, prompting the FA to investigate the matter.

Following a review of the incident, the FA told the Daily Mail: "As guidance, we reviewed the referee's report, but we won't be taking any further action on this."
