US EditionCristian Romero charged by FA after Liverpool red card as Tottenham escape fine
Tottenham captain Cristian Romero faces FA charges for improper conduct after his red card, while Spurs avoided a fine due to fewer than six disciplinary actions in the match.
- On Saturday, the FA charged Tottenham Hotspur captain Cristian Romero after his dismissal for a second yellow card for kicking out at Liverpool defender Ibrahima Konate.
- Having gone into the game on seven bookings, Romero was sent off after dissent and a protest from Tottenham head coach Thomas Frank, who said `There is a massive mistake by John on the pitch.`
- The FA's statement alleged `It's alleged that he acted in an improper manner by failing to promptly leave the field of play and/or behaving in a confrontational and/or aggressive manner towards the match referee after being sent off in the 93rd minute,' and Romero was involved in both Liverpool goals by gifting the ball and disputing a challenge.
- Romero will miss Tottenham's match against Crystal Palace on December 28 due to the one-match ban, and Spurs narrowly avoided a 25,000 fine as fewer than six cautions or sendings-off occurred.
- Romero must respond to the charge by January 2 after referee John Brooks issued six cards, including bookings to Micky van de Ven and Rodrigo Bentancur, as Spurs face pressure ahead of January 4 fixtures.
