Martin Skrtel has been suspended for three games

Liverpool's Martin Skrtel will serve a three match suspension with immediate effect after a charge of violent conduct against him was found proven.

The defender had denied the charge which related to an on-field incident involving Manchester United's David de Gea in the 95th minute of Sunday's game which was not seen by the match officials but caught on video.

However, an Independent Regulatory Commission hearing today found the charge proven.
