Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has denied the charge from UEFA of improper conduct in the fall-out from the Champions League defeat to Barcelona. The Gunners manager and midfielder Samir Nasri have been charged for "inappropriate language" towards Swiss referee Massimo Busacca after the final whistle at the Nou Camp.
The disciplinary case will be heard by UEFA on March 17.
The Frenchman had an angry exchange with the Swiss official after the final whistle over the sending off of Robin van Persie.
Wenger said: "I deny completely any charge. I do not understand where that comes from.
"It is a shame for me that the referee took the decision to send Robin van Persie off. It was the wrong decision.
"The first leg was a fantastic advert for football and the second game has been destroyed. People now will only remember the sending off.
"It would be good for UEFA to show some humility, to apologise for what has happened, not charge people who have done nothing wrong."
