Chelsea defender Marcos Alonso's apparent stamp on Southampton striker Shane Long is under FA investigation, it is reported on Tuesday.

Referee Mike Dean did not book Alonso for the incident, which happened directly in front of fourth official Roger East.

Chelsea came from behind to win 3-2, leaving Southampton five points off safety in the Premier League.
