In A Nutshell

Ivanovic lighter incident probed

The English Football Association (FA) are to contact both Queens Park Rangers and Chelsea after Branislav Ivanovic was hit on the head by a cigarette lighter thrown from among the home fans at Loftus Road on Sunday.
Chelsea's Ivanovic was hit as the visitors celebrated Cesc Fabregas's 88th-minute winner for the Premier League leaders in a 1-0 victory.
Reports in the British press suggest QPR are unlikely to face disciplinary action such as a points penalty given the difficulty of preventing such an incident but the FA are keen to see the culprit identified and given a banning order.
