The FA have confirmed that they will be taking no action over Zlatan Ibrahimovic for a kick on Everton defender Seamus Coleman.
The Manchester United striker will face no punishment for the incident after the FA reveiwed what appeared to be a kick on Coleman.
The pair were involved in a tangle on the floor and Ibrahimovic appeared to catch the Irishman in the face with his boot, but the action was deemed unintentional.
After the match, Ibrahimovic denied that it was intentional, in a very Zlatan way.
"It was a physical game, they played hard," he told 'MUTV'.
"I heard one of the commentators say I kicked someone in the head on purpose, but it was a 50-50 duel and he pulled me down.
"Trust me, if I want to kick someone in the head, I know how to kick someone in the head and make him fall asleep. That is the only thing I have to say".
