• Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is facing improper conduct proceedings for his angry reaction at Anfield stadium over the weekend
• Klopp was beside himself with anger after match officials failed to award a foul on Mohamed Salah
• The German tactician has since apologised for his behaviour that saw him sent off by Anthony Taylor

Jurgen Klopp has been charged officially by the Football Association after he angrily confronted match officials on Sunday, October 16.

Klopp was on the touchline to watch his Liverpool side play Manchester City at the Anfield Stadium, when he was incensed by linesman Gary Beswick.

Centre referee Anthony Taylor sent him off, with the Liverpool boss apologising for his actions later on, as Sky Sports reports.

"I think I should have dealt with it differently, with the situation, which I normally do. It was a very intense game with a lot of decisions."

Klopp was angry that a foul on Mohamed Salah had not been given, as Liverpool struggled to hold on to a slender 1-0 lead.

Salah helped Liverpool to victory

Salah had put Liverpool ahead against the run of play after leaving Joao Cancelo for dead with a sublime piece of skill. The Reds went on to win the game to make sure they ascended into the top half of the Premier League table.

Klopp now has up until Friday to respond to the charge of improper conduct. He faces a touchline ban or fines if found guilty. Former Chelsea head coach Thomas Tuchel faced similar charges and was suspended for one game.
