Tottenham's Cristian Romero charged by FA for misconduct after red card vs Liverpool, will miss next game.

Tottenham captain Cristian Romero has been charged by the FA for allegedly misconduct after being sent off in stoppage time during a 2-1 loss to Liverpool on December 20, 2025. The red card came after a second yellow for a challenge on Ibrahima Konate, following Xavi Simons’ earlier dismissal. The FA alleges Romero failed to leave the pitch promptly and acted aggressively toward referee John Brooks. Romero must respond by January 2 and will miss Tottenham’s upcoming match at Crystal Palace due to a one-match suspension. The team remains 14th in the Premier League with 22 points.
