LONDON, Oct 28 (Reuters) - Chelsea have lodged a complaint of "inappropriate language" by referee Mark Clattenburg during their 3-2 home defeat by Manchester United, the club said on Sunday.
Clattenburg sent off Chelsea's Branislav Ivanovic and Fernando Torres in the second half after they had battled back from 2-0 down at Stamford Bridge. Javier Hernandez's winning goal for United was also offside.
"We have lodged a complaint to the Premier League match delegate with regards to inappropriate language used by the referee and directed at two of our players in two separate incidents," a club spokesman told reporters.
"The match delegate will pass the complaint to the Football Association. We will make no further comment at this time.
