 Huth (right) appeared to punch Upson on Saturday

Stoke City defender Robert Huth has been charged with violent conduct by the Football Association over an incident with West Ham's Matthew Upson.
Huth, 25, appeared to punch Hammers defender Upson during Saturday's game as the players waited for a free-kick.
Upson, 30, left the pitch with blood streaming from the wound near his right eye. He had earlier been caught in the face by a stray Ryan Shawcross boot.
The Germany defender has until 1800 BST on Tuesday to respond to the charge.
West Ham manager Gianfranco Zola said after seeing the incident on television he felt Huth, who was signed from Middlesbrough for £5m in August, should have been sent off.

606: DEBATE

He said: "Looking at the video after the match obviously it was a sending off. I can only assume the referee didn't see it.
"I haven't spoken to the referee about it. I don't think I need to talk to him. It is down to the authorities to decide (whether further action is required) - it won't change the story for me."
Stoke manager Tony Pulis countered: "I will have a look at it and obviously if he has done it we will speak to him and deal with him in-house."
Upson needed stitches following the clash with Huth, while Stoke went on to win 2-1, ending a run of four matches without a win.
