London coach Arsène Wenger was fined 2.5 thousand pounds sterling for accusing the linesman, who officiated in the League Cup match held in February, of being a liar. This is already the third punishment imposed by the English Football Association on the strategist.
A. Wenger denied allegations of improper behavior and comments made after the 2-1 defeat to Chelsea, which ended in a massive brawl and the expulsion of three players from the field.
"I do not agree with the linesman's report, as in my opinion, he is lying," - A. Wenger spoke about the referee's decision to send off Arsenal player Emmanuel Adebayor.
The Commission saw the accusation and assessed the use of the word "lie" as improper behavior.
This was the third time the Frenchman was punished by the Football Association.
Last month, he was fined 2.5 thousand pounds sterling and warned about disputes with referees. Meanwhile, in December, the coach had to pay a fine of 10 thousand pounds sterling and was warned about disputes over the touchline with former West Ham coach Alan Pardew.
