EPL: Klopp Receives FA Charge After Red Card Against Man. City

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has been charged by the Football Association in England following his sending-off during his side’s 1-0 win against Manchester City.

Klopp was sent off after berating a referee’s assistant when he failed to call a foul after a tackle on Mohamed Salah.

Klopp apologised for his reaction in his post-match comments.

“Something snapped in that situation. I’m not proud of that. I deserved a red card, and the way I looked in this moment is not right,” the German admitted.

The 55-year-old has until Friday to respond to the charge and will be allowed to take his place in the dugout for Liverpool’s home game against West Ham on Wednesday.
