Liverpool’s director, Arne Slot, criticized Hugo Ekitike’s “stupid” red card after the striker scored in the 2-1 victory over Southampton in Carabao Cup.
Ekitike received the first yellow card after eight minutes after Thomas Bramall replaced Alexander Isak every half an hour when Thomas Bramall exploded for a free kick.
The 23 -year -old boy tapped the cross of Federico Chiesa in 85 minutes and took off his shirt by congratulating Liverpool’s lead after the Equalizer of Sheea Charlesa.
Ekitike was sent off after receiving the second yellow card in the evening and missed a Saturday fixture for undefeated crystal palace.
After the game, the slot said, “Do you not need it? And it was foolish. The first was already unnecessary and it was foolish when you had to control your feelings to some extent.
“I can understand that you can understand when you surpass three players in the Champion League final in 87 minutes and you can understand when you hit it at the top corner, ‘this is about me.
“But I am old -fashioned. I’m 47 years old and I’m older. I didn’t play at this level, but I scored a few goals, and if I achieved this goal, I turned around and walked to Federico Chiesa and said, ‘This goal is not about you.’
“Controlling emotions is always best. If you can’t do it, do not lead to a yellow card.”
Robertson Slams’ Silly’Ekitike Red
Liverpool Vice President Andy Robertson repercused on the slot’s criticism against Ekitike after marking the case as “fool” in the aftermath of his victory in the fourth round of Karabao Cup.
Robertson said, “If he is again, he will be very surprised. Sky Sports.
“To achieve a goal is always emotional and clearly forgotten. His first is a foolish. Two stupid reservations and we miss him on Saturday.
“It’s foolish in his role. He is convinced that he will never learn from it.”
Sherwood: Ekitike disappointed you
SKY SPORTS TIM SHERWOOD:
“Can you believe it? Can you believe it? He gets a second yellow card. If I’m Arne slot, it will be postponed. What do he think? He must know the rules.
“I think that’s the pressure of ISAK, the noise around it. He tells everyone that I’m here. We know that he was really good. He is a true threat.
“That’s the fifth goal of the season. He can’t do it anymore than he does. We all know your name!
“Liverpool fans don’t have to appreciate what they’re doing. Now he’s not going to play. And whether Isak is ready to play. Ekitike disappointed him.”
