In the final Merseyside derby, which took place at Goodison Park, there were wild scenes as a result of the fact that three red cards were issued after James Tarkowski scored a last-gasp equalizer.
Everton’s captain scored a stunning volleyed finish with the final kick of the game against Liverpool, bringing the score to 2-2 and sending Goodison into raptures. The goal came with Everton trailing Liverpool by a score of 2-1 deep in stoppage time.
Following an extensive video assistant referee (VAR) review that considered the possibility of Ibrahima Konate being offside and committing a foul, the goal was awarded, and Tarkowski was able to open his account for the season.
When the final whistle blew, Everton supporters went into a hysterical outburst, and Everton midfielder Abdoulaye Doucoure made the decision to cross over and taunt the Liverpool supporters.
Curtis Jones, a midfielder for Liverpool, became enraged by this, and he shoved the Mali international. This led to a brawl, which ensued during which players from both teams piled in.
Both players were shown a red card by Michael Oliver after the game, and Liverpool manager Arne Slot was also shown a red card when he went over to speak to the
referee in an animated manner. Additionally, both players were sent off by Michael Oliver.
It didn’t take long for footage to surface, capturing the entire incident and demonstrating how tempers began to flare.
After having a conversation with Doucoure, Virgil van Dijk, the captain of Liverpool, attempted to have a conversation with Oliver while simultaneously encouraging his teammates to leave the field.
In the end, the Reds were able to accomplish this goal, despite receiving two points in the final moments of the game. Nevertheless, Liverpool has moved seven points ahead of Arsenal at the top of the Premier League table. This is due to the fact that they have a game within their own possession.
