UEFA has charged Didier Drogba and Jose Bosingwa with misconduct for insulting the referee after Chelsea's elimination from the Champions League.
UEFA has also charged the club with failing to control the players as well as fans who threw objects.
UEFA said Drogba and Bosingwa breached sportsmanship by making offensive comments about Norwegian referee Tom Henning Ovrebo.
Ovrebo denied several penalty appeals in the 1-1 draw with Barcelona in a semifinal at Stamford Bridge. Barcelona scored a late equalizer to advance to the final on away goals and will play Manchester United in Rome on Wednesday.
UEFA's disciplinary panel will hear the cases June 17. It can ban players from Champions League matches and make Chelsea play behind closed doors.
