The game at FC Everton is experiencing a dramatic end – to the dismay of Liverpool FC. After the final whistle there are unsightly scenes.
Drama shortly before the end: After the embarrassment in the FA-Cup, FC Liverpool also had to accept a neck strike in the Premier League. At Everton FC, the “Reds” did not get past a 2-2 (1: 1) in a competitive Merseyside derby after a last-minute goal. Nevertheless, the team of coach Arne Slot leads the table with seven points ahead of the FC Arsenal to. On Monday, Liverpool was sensational against the second division club Plymouth Argyle in the trophy.
In the last derby in Goodison Park – Everton soon moved to a new stadium – Beto initially had the home fans cheered (11th). Only five minutes later, Liverpools Alexis Mac Allister headed to compensate. In the second half, starstorm Mohamed Salah (73.) turned the game. James Tarkowski had the last word with a volley shot (90.+8)-even after minutes of Var check.
After the final whistle, the emotions boiled up again in the form of a pack formation. On TV images it was seen how Liverpools Curtis Jones Zuber on Everton’s Abdoulaye Doucouré, both fought a tangible wrangling in front of the guest block, had to be separated from teammates.
Previously, Doucouré had probably gestured towards the Liverpool fans and put the index finger on the mouth as a “calm” signal. Both players saw yellow-red subsequently. Liverpool trainer Slot even saw smooth red, who wanted to confront the referee Michael Oliver after playing-and apparently became too emotional.
Originally, the explosive game should have taken place on the 15th matchday in early December. However, it was postponed due to violent snowfall.
