Liverpool vs Everton was marked with an official controversial
Michael Oliver’s referee was an important point of discussion, as several decisions seemed to favor home games.
Everton’s initial goal came after a dubious free foul, despite what seemed to be not contact between the players. Liverpool’s defense was trapped while Beto turned the fast piece to put Everton in the 11th minute.
Liverpool responded quickly, with Alexis Mac Allister on a cross by Mohamed Salah only four minutes later to score the score. Salah then put the reds in the second half with an excellent end for the first time.
However, the controversy occurred at the end of the game when James Tarkowski’s goal recovered a point for Everton, three minutes beyond the assigned stop time. It seemed that there was a foul on Konate in the accumulation and the goal was briefly reviewed by VAR and the goal was given.
Liverpool rushed to restart, launching a long ball, but Michael Oliver immediately exploded the full -time whistle.
The final whistle caused chaos when Everton Abdoulaye Doucouuré’s midfielder appeared to Liverpool’s supporters, giving rise to a furious reaction from Curtis Jones. A heated was exploded between both sets of playersForcing Michael Oliver to remove red cards from both Doucouré and Jones, as well as the Liverpool manager, Arne Slot.
The draw means that Liverpool now has a seven -point advantage over the second place arsenal, although a victory would have put them in a nine -point advantage.
Liverpool will not be without Curtis Jones in the next game, while the manager Arne Slot will not be available on the sidelines either.
There could be more problems for Liverpool if he decides to punish Vanjk for his comments in the post -party interview -Party on Michael Oliver’s office. If your comments are punished or left to see.
