Peter Walton explains why Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp must be 'properly punished' for red card v Man City

Former Premier League referee Peter Walton has claimed that Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp should be 'properly punished' for his sending off in Liverpool's 1-0 win over rivals Manchester City at Anfield on Sunday.

Klopp was dismissed by referee Anthony Taylor for reacting furiously at assistant referee Gary Beswick failing to flag for a foul by Bernardo Silva on Mohamed Salah toward the end of the dramatic victory for his side.

The German admitted he was "not proud" of the incident while agreeing with the decision. However, he will not be subject to an automatic ban. The Football Association will decide whether to charge, warn or take no further action against the Reds boss once they are in receipt of the report on the match from referee Taylor.
