The players have until Wednesday, February 5, 2025, to respond to the charges.
The GFA's disciplinary committee will investigate the incident and take appropriate action according to the rules of the game.
This development is part of ongoing efforts to address violent disturbances and prevent similar incidents in future fixtures.
