London - Liverpool defender Martin Skrtel was charged with violent conduct by the Football Association on Monday following his clash with Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea.
Skrtel stepped on de Gea's right leg as he challenged aggressively for the ball in the final seconds of stoppage-time during United's 2-1 win at Anfield on Sunday.
The FA said in a statement the incident was not seen by the officials, but was caught on video.
