Burnley’s James Tarkowski protests to the assistant referee after a penalty was awarded to Brighton. Reuters[/caption] Tarkowski was not punished by referee Chris Kavanagh for the off-the-ball incident inside Burnley’s box in the 35th minute, shortly after Murray had missed a penalty following a tangle with the centreback. The player has been charged retrospectively by the FA after three former elite match officials reviewed the incident. Burnley have until 1800 GMT on Tuesday to respond and Tarkowski could miss games against Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester United and Huddersfield Town if he accepts the charge.
