Chelsea secured a 2-1 victory over Newcastle United on Sunday in the Premier League. Despite the win, Chelsea's disciplinary issues took center stage as the Football Association (FA) imposed a fine of £75,000 on the club for accumulating six yellow cards during the match.
This incident marks the third time this season that Chelsea has received such a sanction, highlighting a persistent problem with maintaining discipline on the field.

The FA's decision to fine Chelsea is based on their repeated infractions, as this is the third occurrence this season where the team has been penalized for receiving six or more yellow cards in a single game.
Previously, Chelsea was fined £25,000 for a similar issue in their 1-0 win over Bournemouth and £50,000 following a 1-1 draw against Nottingham Forest. These fines bring Chelsea's total penalties for disciplinary issues to £150,000 this season.
The match against Newcastle saw Nicolas Jackson scoring the opening goal for Chelsea, with Alexander Isak equalizing for Newcastle. Cole Palmer then scored the decisive goal, securing the win for Chelsea. However, the focus remains on the disciplinary challenges faced by the team, as players including Robert Sanchez, Christopher Nkunku, Wesley Fofana, Romeo Lavia, Pedro Neto, and Noni Madueke were all shown yellow cards during the game.
