Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp has been charged with improper behaviour by the English Football Association following his sending off in Sunday’s Premier League victory over Manchester City.
The German was shown a red card by referee Anthony Taylor in the closing stages of the match at Anfield after shouting angrily at an assistant referee.
Klopp had felt his side should have been awarded a free-kick after a challenge on forward Mohamed Salah by City’s Bernardo Silva.
A statement from the FA read: “Jurgen Klopp has been charged with a breach of FA Rule E3 following the Premier League game between Liverpool FC and Manchester City FC on Sunday.
