Curtis Jones and Abdoulaye Doucoure were both sent off for grappling and Reds boss Slot was then dismissed alongside his assistant for using "insulting and/or abusive words and/or behaviour towards a match official." The FA have now charged all parties, who have until 19 February to respond.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>A statement has finally been released by the FA after one was <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/arne-slot-suspended-liverpool-boss-slapped-two-match-touchline-ban-premier-league-confirm-reason-red-card-merseyside-derby/blt71b6aa4e08e8fffa" target="_blank">deleted by the Premier League</a> the day after the game. Friday's announcement read: "Everton, Liverpool, Arne Slot and Sipke Hulshoff have been charged following the Premier League fixture between the clubs on Wednesday, 12 February.</p><p>"It is alleged that both clubs failed to ensure their players and/or technical area occupants did not behave in an improper and/or provocative way following the final whistle.</p><p>"The Liverpool manager allegedly acted in an improper manner and/or used insulting and/or abusive words and/or behaviour towards both the match referee and an assistant referee after the match had finished.</p><p>"It is alleged that Liverpool’s assistant manager acted in an improper manner and/or used insulting and/or abusive words and/or behaviour towards a match official, which led to his dismissal. It is further alleged that he acted in an improper manner and/or used insulting and/or abusive words and/or behaviour towards a match official after being sent off.</p><p>"Everton, Liverpool, Arne Slot and Sipke Hulshoff have until next Wednesday, 19 February, to provide their respective responses."</p>

WHAT THE FA SAID

<p>The match may have done temporary damage to Liverpool with bans for Jones and Slot pending, but it also hindered their chances of cruising to Premier League glory in May. The Reds had the chance to go nine points clear of second-placed Arsenal but could only extend their advantage to seven, keeping the Gunners in the title race. </p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>With the deadline to respond not until next week, Slot could be on the touchline against Wolves this weekend and miss the trips to Aston Villa and Manchester City.</p>
