Jurgen Klopp stated that after learning of his punishment for receiving a red card against Manchester City, he is neither glad nor relieved.
Following a challenge between Bernardo Silva and Mohamed Salah, the manager of Liverpool was dismissed in the final moments of the Reds’ 1-0 triumph over the defending Premier League champions. The manager yelled at the referee’s assistant. The FA fined the German £30,000, saving him from a touchline suspension.
As a result, Klopp will have complete control over his players when Liverpool hosts Leeds United at Anfield on Saturday. In his pre-game press conference, the former Borussia Dortmund manager addressed the incident and said that it was his first red card in more than 20 years.
I am mindful of what I said, and it would be acceptable (OK) if I said it while looking at a different person. The world’s most costly face!
“A lot of money, but it’s being used for a good cause, so that’s okay. never consumed red before. I’m not overjoyed or relieved; I was only anticipating the penalty.
The FA referred to Klopp’s actions as “improper” in its own statement. After receiving the Independent Regulatory Commission’s written reasoning, either Jurgen Klopp or The FA may appeal this sentence, according to the statement.
While awaiting word on his fate, Klopp supervised victories against West Ham and Nottingham Forest as well as a Champions League success at Ajax. He also faced the risk of a one-game touchline suspension. His most recent remarks follow an admission of guilt following the dismissal, in which he described a discussion he had with referee Anthony Taylor.
At the time, Klopp acknowledged, “It is about emotion of course, so red card, my fault, I went over the top at the moment.” “I am 55 and I am deserving of a red card, I know myself. In that instant, I snapped, and it was not okay.
