Pep Guardiola given FA warning for behaviour during Manchester City's win over Liverpool

Pep Guardiola was given a stern talking to by referee Anthony Taylor after throwing a tantrum at fourth official Martin Atkinson

Pep Guardiola has been warned by the FA about his behaviour on the touchline during Manchester City's 2-1 win against Liverpool.

The City boss threw his scarf to the ground and shouted at fourth official Martin Atkinson after a challenge by a Liverpool player went unpunished.

Referee Anthony Taylor spoke to Guardiola, who apologised for his actions.

The Spaniard has been given a stage one warning under FA regulations. If he receives three more warnings, it will result in a one-match touchline ban.

Manchester City ran out 2-1 winners on Thursday to cut Liverpool's lead at the top of the Premier League to four points.
