Cody Gakpo is set to receive a warning from The Football Association for his goal celebration during Liverpool's 5-1 victory over Tottenham Hotspur, where he revealed an undershirt with the message 'I belong to Jesus'. This act, while typically punishable by a yellow card for shirt removal, has drawn specific scrutiny due to regulations banning political or religious messages on football equipment. Gakpo will not face additional penalties beyond the warning. Meanwhile, teammate Mohamed Salah has avoided punishment after his celebration, where he took a selfie with fans using a staff member's phone, as Liverpool approaches the end of a successful season.
Cody Gakpo will receive a warning from the FA for violating rules on celebrations by revealing a shirt with a religious message during Liverpool's victory.
Despite the potential for yellow card sanctions for removing his shirt, Gakpo will not face further punishment beyond a warning regarding equipment regulations.
