Shkodran Mustafi to avoid FA action after controversial celebration
Monday 3 September 2018 16:58, UK
Shkodran Mustafi will not face any action from the Football Association for his goal celebration against Cardiff on Sunday.
The defender celebrated his opening goal in Arsenal's 3-2 win by appearing to make an Albanian Eagle sign in solidarity to his team-mate Granit Xhaka.
Xhaka has received criticism in Switzerland for his views about his family's roots.
Both Xhaka and Xherdan Shaqiri were fined by FIFA for a similar celebration in a match against Serbia at the World Cup this season.
The FA, however, has decided it will not launch disciplinary proceedings against Mustafi.
