After a VAR review, referee Simon Hooper issued a straight red card to Anthony Gordon for serious foul play, resulting in a three-match suspension for the Newcastle player.

- Late in the first half, Newcastle United trailed 1-0 after Ryan Gravenberch's 35th-minute strike before the sending-off occurred in stoppage time.
- TV pundits highlighted the severity of the challenge, with Thierry Henry, former Arsenal forward , saying `At the time it happened, I said it was a red` as Virgil van Dijk showed visible stud marks and did not protest the red card.

- With 10 men, Newcastle struggled as Gordon's dismissal worsened their striker shortage and Liverpool scored 23 seconds into the second half to win 3-2 at St James' Park.
