The Premier League has handed Liverpool manager, Arne Slot, a two-match touchline ban following his red card against Everton on Wednesday night.

A brawl broke out between the two teams after the final whistle at Goodison Park.

James Tarkowski had rescued a point for the hosts with a late header.
The melee saw Abdoulaye Doucoure and Curtis Jones sent off as well as Slot and assistant Sipke Hulshoff.

Slot’s post-match press conference was cancelled as a result of the incident.

The Dutchman has now been punished by the Premier League for his actions.

A statement read: “Liverpool head coach Arne Slot was dismissed at the end of the Merseyside derby for using offensive, insulting, or abusive language.

“He is handed a two-match touchline ban as a result.”

The result means that Slot’s men now lead the Premier League table by seven points from nearest challengers Arsenal.
