Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk's suspension has been extended.
Van Dijk was sent off in victory at Newcastle United and received a one-match ban - so missing Sunday's win against Aston Villa.
He has been suspended for an extra match and fined 100,000 after admitting he acted in an improper manner following his red card. It means he will miss next week's game at Wolves.
The FA said in a statement on Friday: "The defender admitted that he acted in an improper manner and used abusive and insulting words towards a match official after being sent off, and the sanctions were subsequently imposed by an independent regulatory commission."
Writing on Instagram Van Dijk said: "I'd just like to make it clear I totally accept the panel's decision.
"It was my first red card of my Liverpool career and I let my frustrations get the better of me in an intense and heated moment.
"I apologised immediately after the game to the match officials and take full responsibility."
