(Reuters) - Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has escaped punishment after a Football Association charge of using foul language following his side's win over Newcastle United was found to have been "not proven".

The Portuguese coach was reported to have directed an insult in his native language towards a camera which was live tracking him down the touchline after his side's 3-2 comeback win in the Premier League at Old Trafford earlier this month.
