The 33-year-old was reacting to a tackle by Arteta late in the game and appeared to push the Spaniard maliciously in the back.

The ever lenient Chris Foy did not book the former England international at the time, but Owen could face a probe by English football's governing body after the incident was caught on camera.

Potters boss Tony Pulis told Sky Sports: "Arteta's challenge was poor, but Michael should not do that.

"If Michael has done what he has done and they look at it, then they will deal with it. We'll see what they say. Obviously I am going to be biased as it is my football team."
