Jurgen Klopp has been handed a Football Association (FA) charge following his actions during Liverpool s Premier League win over Manchester City on Sunday.
The Reds manager was shown a red card late on during his side s 1-0 victory at Anfield after he lambasted an assistant referee when no foul was given in Mohamed Salah s favour near the touchline.
Klopp accepted responsibility in his post-match comments, admitting he had overstepped the mark, having been sent to the stands by referee Anthony Taylor.
The 55-year-old is to be allowed in the dugout for Liverpool s next match against West Ham, but he has meanwhile been given until the end of the week to respond to an official charge relating to improper behaviour.

England just about deserved the three points but the outcome hung in the balance after Andriy Shevchenko came off the bench to cancel out Peter Crouch s first-half strike with just over quarter of an hour left.
Capello admitted his side had been below par but said the win had been testimony to their character.
It was not a rich game, a little bit…
