The Football Association has revealed the X-Rant Rant that led to Arne Slot’s red card after Liverpool’s 2-2 draw against Everton last month.
The reception received a two -game Touchline Touchline along with a fine of £ 70,000 after being sent by referee Michael Oliver at the end of the final Derby Merseyside at Goodison Park.
The race ended in a dramatic way, with James Tarkowski marking a 98th minute to set the Reds title charge.
According to FA’s written report, the reception faced the officials of the match after the final whistle, entering the pitch, while feelings ran high.
The document states: “It was said by the referee that after a full -time whistle, it was approached by LFC’s Arne (‘AS’) reception, which had entered the game to face the referee and the group of officials. The tensions were high.
“It was argued that the way was contradictory and aggressive. It was argued that he initially used abusive words, while shaking the referee’s hand, including the referee had” f ****** giving everything “and that we hoped the referee was proud of this performance.”

“Then the referee confirms (having reviewed the video to clarify) that he was re -approached about a minute later. In this exchange, as he once again shook the referee’s hand and said:” If we do not win the championship, I will blame you. “
“As a result of behavior, he showed a red card from the referee.”
While the reception accepted the burden, he questioned the exact wording given to him.
The FA continued: “In its submissions, as, while admitting the accusations, it challenged the language allegedly used and it is proposed that there may have been confusion between what and SH (SIPKE HULSHOFF, Liverpool leader) to the referee.
“It was argued that, as he said, while shaking the referee’s hand,” If we do not win the championship, I will blame you. ”
“Instead, as he claims he actually said:” If we don’t win the championship, I will thank you for that. ”
“FA argued that” language and words were as mentioned by officials of the fight. However, FA claimed that this discrepancy made no real difference in ratification, in any case, since the words used are still consisting of acting in an inappropriate way and accepting it.
Arne Slot was accused of saying officials of the race: “If we do not win the championship, I will be to blame for you,” as the tempers inflate after the chaotic 2-2 draw with Everton last month.

“It should be noted that as he does not dispute the report” f ****** shame “to the assistant referee.”
Slot acknowledged that his actions were inappropriate and attributed his explosion to frustration over the basic arbitration decisions he felt he went against Liverpool. He later issued an apology, both privately and publicly, stating at a press conference:
“I think what happened was that the extra time, that the extra five minutes that ended up were eight, many happened and the feelings got the best of me. If I look back, I would love to do it differently. I hope to do it differently next time.”
Splot began to serve the two-game Touchline during Liverpool 2-0 in Newcastle and will also be absent for the upcoming conflict against Southampton.
Assistant coach Sipke Hulshoff, who was also sent after full time, was suspended two races and a fine of £ 7,000 for his behavior.
The FA continued to say: “In addition, Sipke Hulshoff (‘Sh’) is said to have entered the game after full -time whistle to deal with the referee in a” extremely aggressive way “.
“It is argued that SH said the referee was ‘f ****** s ***’ and ‘gave them everything’ and was a ‘shame’. We advise that the referee is trying to get away from the situation to cope with the redundancies of CJ (Curtis Jones) and Ad (Abdoulaye Doucoure) He continues to shout “f ****** s ***”.
“SH also showed a red card from the referee and rejected.”
In addition to reception and Hulshoff, Liverpool’s midfielder Curtis Jones and Everton’s Abdoulaye Doucoure also received red cards after a transfer after the race.
