US EditionHow Many Liverpool Games Dominik Szoboszlai Will Miss After Red Card vs Man City
Szoboszlai's red card for denying a goalscoring opportunity disallowed a late Manchester City goal and will sideline him for Liverpool's next match, the club confirmed.
- Referee Craig Pawson disallowed a late City goal after a VAR check found Szoboszlai pulled Haaland's shirt, then showed him a straight red card.
- Liverpool keeper Alisson went up for a late corner leaving his net unattended, and Rayan Cherki pinged the ball from the halfway line as Haaland chased it, tussling with Szoboszlai.
- Szoboszlai had earlier opened the scoring with a swerving free-kick a quarter of an hour before full time and was involved as Bernardo Silva was played onside for City to level.
- Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola urged the referee to award the goal, while fans online and Gary Neville criticised the decision; Arne Slot declined to comment on Szoboszlai's red card but criticised other refereeing calls.
- Critics noted pundits and commentators argued the ruling felt unjust and said it 'killed one of the great moments of the season', while some observers said VAR had 'killed the joy' for fans.
