Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has been charged by the Football Association following his red card in Sunday’s 1-0 win over Manchester City at Anfield.
Klopp has until Friday to respond to the charge of improper conduct.
The Liverpool manager was sent off after fuming at assistant referee Gary Beswick for not flagging for a foul on Mohamed Salah during the 1-0 victory at Anfield.
Speaking after the game, Klopp said it was “about emotion” and took blame for the sending off, saying he “went over the top” but that he felt he had not disrespected the official.
Ahead of the visit of West Ham on Wednesday night and the FA charge, Klopp said he expected to lead his team at Anfield before accepting he could have handled the situation better.
