Klopp is BANNED for one match over accusing referee Paul Tierney of bias

  /  autty

Jurgen Klopp has been banned for one match after accusing referee Paul Tierney of bias after Liverpool's 4-3 win over Tottenham last month.

Klopp received a touchline ban following his post match comments, with the first effective immediately.

The second match of the ban is suspended until the end of the 2023/24 season on the condition that he does not commit any further breaches in the meantime.

'Jurgen Klopp admitted that his comments regarding the match referee during post-match media interviews constitute improper conduct as they imply bias, question the integrity of the referee, are personal, offensive, and bring the game into disrepute,' an FA statement read.
