Liverpool FC skipper Steven Gerrard could find himself in hot water with the Football Association.
He appeared to give a V-sign at referee Andre Marriner during his side's 1-0 defeat at Wigan.
Gerrard was booked in the 81st minute of the clash at the DW Stadium following a robust challenge from behind on James McCarthy.
Replays of the incident suggested he had gestured towards Marriner as well as mouthing an obscenity at the official.
Marriner did not notice the gesture but the FA might decide that Gerrard has a case to answer.
Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez, speaking after the Wigan game, insisted he had not seen the incident.
"I don't know, I was too far away," said the Spaniard.
