Manchester United could face disciplinary action after a bottle of cider and a coin were hurled at Manchester City forward Craig Bellamy during Wednesday's League Cup semifinal match.

Adam Teese, 26, was charged Thursday with throwing an object onto the Old Trafford pitch as United beat City 3-1 in the second leg to advance 4-3 on aggregate. If convicted, he faces a lifetime ban from United.

Eleven fans were arrested in total at the match and United could be fined by the Football Association.

The FA will study reports from referee Howard Webb and United's security team before deciding if any action needs to be taken.
