PGMOL chief Howard Webb contacted Liverpool to apologise for the officiating error that led to Luis Diaz's goal incorrectly being disallowed against Tottenham Hotspur, but the Reds could still be fined by the FA after being issued with eight yellow and red cards
Liverpool could be hit by a £25,000 disciplinary fine by the FA following their 2-1 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday.
Yet Liverpool’s misery might not end there following their ‘ill-discipline’ in the capital. Jurgen Klopp’s side saw Curtis Jones controversially shown a straight red card for a foul on Yves Bissouma in the first half in North London following VAR intervention, while Diogo Jota was dismissed for two bookable offences in quick-succession after the break.
Alexis Mac Allister, Mohamed Salah, Andy Robertson, and Virgil van Dijk were also all cautioned, along with assistant manager Peter Krawietz. The FA punishes clubs who accrue more than five bookings in a game, with the Reds susceptible to being issued with a fine as a result. Liverpool have now seen four players sent off this season, with manager Klopp insisting that his team are not a dirty side despite their recent ill-discipline.
