Liverpool manager Arne Slot faced a two-match ban and a £70,000 fine after being sent off for confronting referee Michael Oliver during a Merseyside derby draw. Slot accepted charges of improper behavior after allegedly swearing about having to blame the referee if they don’t win the league. The FA noted that his apology and lack of prior misconduct warranted a reduced fine. Despite penning an apology, Slot's actions were deemed unacceptable as frustrations over game decisions led to the outburst, alongside continued scrutiny from the FA.
Slot accepted that, and did not dispute using another swear word as he called the assistant referee a "disgrace".
Slot acknowledged his actions were unacceptable and he let his frustrations get the better of him, because he felt certain decisions during the game went against his side.
