Liverpool striker Luis Suarez has been charged with improper conduct by the Football Association over an allegedly abusive hand gesture during the 1-0 defeat at Fulham on Monday.
Suarez appeared to raise the middle finger of his left hand towards the home fans as he left the pitch.
Liverpool have also been charged with failing to control their players after the dismissal of Jay Spearing.
The club said they would review the FA documentation before making comment.
Suarez and Liverpool have until 1600 GMT on Monday 12 December to respond to both charges.
Uruguay star Suarez is now the subject of two FA disciplinary cases.
Last month, he was charged with racially abusing Manchester United defender Patrice Evra during Liverpool's 1-1 draw with Manchester United in October.
The latest incident occurred at the end of a damaging defeat for the Reds, during which Suarez was subjected to chants of "cheat" from sections of the home crowd.
