London: The FA has charged Cristian Romero, who could face an extended ban. Tottenham Hotspur are in trouble as the FA has announced it will charge Cristian Romero for the sending off of the Argentina international in Saturday’s 2-1 Premier League defeat to Liverpool.

According to Thai News Agency, Tottenham suffered a defeat against the Premier League champions, with the Spurs reduced to nine men after Dutch midfielder Safi Simons was sent off for a tackle on Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk’s calf just half an hour into the game.

In addition to Simons, who is serving a three-game suspension, the Football Association (FA) announced on December 24th that Romero has also been charged for receiving two yellow cards for his tackle on Ibrahima Konat©, which resulted in Konat©’s sending off in stoppage time. The Argentine star’s inappropriate reaction to referee John Brooks and his refusal to leave the field could lead to a suspension exceeding one match.
