Rafa charged by FA over complaint

Rafa Benitez has been handed an ‘improper conduct’ charge by the English Football Association following comments he made following Liverpool’s opening day defeat against Tottenham Hotspur.

Liverpool lost 2-1 but can look at two second half penalty decisions, including a hand-ball, that did not go Liverpool’s way.

After the game Benitez said:

“The decisions were very poor.”

Sammy Lee, who was sent to the stands for the game, was also charged with the same offence.

Rafa has a fortnight to reply to the charges.
