Liverpool head coach Arne Slot and his assistant Sipke Hulshoff have been charged by England’s Football Association for misconduct at the end of a dramatic Merseyside derby.
Slot was shown a red card after the final whistle by referee Michael Oliver in the 2-2 draw which was the final derby at Goodison Park.
The Liverpool manager and his assistant Hulshoff were judged to have “acted in an improper manner and/or used insulting and/or abusive words and/or behaviour” towards the match officials.
Both Merseyside clubs have also been charged with their players behaving in an “improper and/or provocative way following the final whistle”.
Wednesday, February 19, has been set as the date for all parties to provide responses to the charges, which could however bring suspensions and fines.
