After that, they believed in playing to save the match result and did not try to create a serious attacking game to score more goals.
McManaman Until the 90+8 injury time, the ‘Blue Toffees’ equalized 2-2 from James Tarkowski. Even though the visiting team protest. That more than three minutes of add time had been add.
And Beto, the attacking striker, committed a foul on Liverpool defender Ibrahima Konaté. But it is unsuccessful, leading to the Everton fans’ great joy on the pitch.
As someone who has experience the Merseyside Derby, Macca believes. That head coach Arne Slot has forgotten to remind his team about the Toffees’ recklessness. Who are ready to fight until the final whistle. While Abdoulaye Doucoure is not thinking ahead and just wants to feel good.
It’s homework for both the Liverpool coach and players to go back and fix. If they hope to win the league title.
“It was a fitting Merseyside derby to conclude at Goodison Park with. That kind of conclusion – as intense as a 1980s game,” the former Liverpool winger said.
“It may not have been a game of quality football, but the overall impression was brutal, full of passion, with both sides battling on the pitch.”
“In the end, many people were fired. Fans from both sides incited hostility to fight each other.”
“The most perfectly mixed ingredients result in chaos in the end.”
“Abdoulaye Doucoure roused the 37,000 fans in their stadium to cheers and celebrate in front of them.”
“But provoking in front of Liverpool fans is a very stupid decision. Because it could have ended in a different way in the worst case.”
“Doucoure is a key player and if Everton go to the next game and lose. It will be further evidence. That the decisions they made were lousy.”
The official website states that Doucoure was sent off due to a yellow card and a red card. Meaning he will miss the away game at Crystal Palace (15 Feb).
On Liverpool’s side , Curtis Jones was also show a yellow card and red card. While head coach Arnold Slot. And staff member Zipke Halsoft were shown a straight red card. Meaning they will not have a chance in the home game against Wolves.
