Liverpool head coach Jurgen Klopp has been given 2 matches ban and will have to pay a fine after he talked about the referee Paul Tierney after the Reds’ 4-3 victory against Tottenham in April.

Klopp will miss the clash against Aston Villa, while the 2nd game will be suspended through the next season on the condition that the manager doesn’t violate any more league rules.
“The Liverpool head coach confirms that his comments regarding the game official during post-clash media Interviews include inappropriate conduct as they hint favoritism, question the honor of the referee, are personal, distasteful, and bring the match into disrepute,” the FA announced today.
Jurgen claimed back then that Tierney had a bias against his team, but he can’t prove it.
