OFFICIAL: Liverpool coach Slot banned for two games for using offensive language

  /  Tonyleung

BREAKING: Arne Slot slapped with two-match ban as reasons for Liverpool manager's red card against Everton are revealed.

Slot was shown a red card by referee Michael Oliver after the final whistle, following a dramatic few minutes that saw tensions flare between Liverpool and Everton players.

The Premier League have revealed on their website that Slot will face two matches away from the sidelines as a result of the incident.

The Reds boss is said to have used "offensive, insulting, or abusive language".

Footage following the game showed Slot approach referee Michael Oliver to have a few words and shake his hand.

But as the pair shook hands, Oliver quickly reached into his pocket before producing a red card for the Dutchman.

Liverpool won't even be able to rely on assistant manager Sipke Hulshoff on the touchlines for their clash with Wolves this weekend either.

That's because Hulshoff was also given his marching orders by Oliver during the incident.

Everton's Abdoulaye Doucoure and Liverpool's Curtis Jones were both sent off for two bookable offences during the 2-2. The pair will each serve one-match bans.
