Liverpool player hit with FA sanction after post-match incident
Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker has been fined £8,000 by the Football Association (FA) following an incident after the Reds’ recent draw with Nottingham Forest.
The Brazil international was frustrated after the match and kicked a substitution board as emotions boiled over. The FA subsequently charged him with misconduct.
Alisson accepted the charge, and the FA confirmed the £8,000 fine as punishment for his actions.
The incident came after a difficult result for Liverpool, who were held to a draw by Forest. Despite the frustration, Alisson remains an important part of the Liverpool squad.
The FA sanction means the goalkeeper has now paid the price for his post-match reaction, although there is no indication that the punishment will affect his availability for Liverpool’s upcoming fixtures.
