LIVERPOOL boss Jurgen Klopp has been banned for two matches after his angry outburst against Tottenham.
The Reds boss sprinted to the fourth official to celebrate his side’s late winner, before accusing referee Paul Tierney of holding a “grudge” against his side.

Klopp will be absent from the touchline for this weekend’s clash with Aston Villa.
The second match of the ban has been suspended until the end of next season.
He has also been fined £75,000 for his comments regarding referee Tierney.
Klopp, 55, said at the time: “How they can give a foul on Mohamed Salah [just before Spurs’ third goal]? We have our history with Tierney.
“I really don’t know what he has against us. He has said there is no problems but that cannot be true.
“How he looks at me, I don’t understand it. My celebration was unnecessary, which is fair, but what he said to me when he gave me the yellow card is not OK.”
