Styles controversially awarded Chelsea a penalty which enabled the Blues to equalise after Fernando Torres' opener, before causing confusion by brandishing a yellow card at Michael Essien - who had already been booked - but insisting it was John Terry being booked.

And Hackett, general manager of Professional Game Match Officials Limited, told Sky Sports News: "Accountability exists and we, the PGMOL, do expect referees to get big decisions correct. On this occasion it was wrong and therefore Rob will not be officiating next weekend."

Meanwhile Styles has apologised to Liverpool after admitting he was wrong to award the penalty to Chelsea during the 1-1 draw.

The match official has accepted he made a mistake, saying: "All referees enter into matches hoping not to make any mistakes but understanding that they may happen, what none of us want is for any mistake to potentially affect the result of the match.

"On Sunday, in mistakenly awarding a penalty, I accept that I may have affected the result of the match and for that I apologise."
