Mario Balotelli will be fined by Liverpool for exchanging jerseys with Pepe as he left the pitch at halftime.
“It is not something I stand for,” Brendan Rodgers said. “We had an incident with a player last year and we dealt with it internally. If you want to do that, you do it at the end of the game. It is something I will deal with tomorrow.”
A year ago, Rodgers fined Mamadou Sakho and Philippe Coutinho following incidents against Chelsea. The pair swapped shirts with Samuel Eto’o and Oscar, respectively.
“It is normal in football to swap shirts. Sometimes they do it at half-time with the opponent. I do not see a problem,” said Carlo Ancelotti.
