Jurgen Klopp 'facing one-game touchline ban'

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is set to be handed a one-game touchline ban after being sent off during Sunday's 1-0 victory over Manchester City.

Klopp was shown a red card after reacting furiously to what he deemed was a foul by Bernando Silva on Mohamed Salah in stoppage time of the Premier League contest.

While the German was sent to the stands by referee Anthony Taylor, the Reds held firm to clinch a 1-0 win thanks to Salah's 76th-minute strike.

According to the Daily Mail, the red card will result in a one-game touchline ban for the Liverpool boss, which is expected to be served on Wednesday when the Reds play host to West Ham United.

Following the victory, Klopp admitted to reporters that he "went over the top", and accepted the decision to send him off.

The result maintained Liverpool's unbeaten home record this season, while it also lifted them up to eighth place in the Premier League table.
