Liverpool have been beaten by Paris Saint-Germain 2-1 in the Champions League Group C game. Liverpool fans have been left furious not only for the defeat but also by Marco Verratti’s studs-up challenge on Joe Gomez.
Verratti lost control of the ball while driving forward and flew in with his right boot raised on the Reds defender. The Italian’s studs smashed into Gomez’s leg and a foul was given.
Supporters watching back home agreed with Jordan Henderson and Virgil van Dijk that it should have been more than a yellow card and showed their frustration on Twitter.
