MAC ALLISTER RED CARD 🟥: Mac Allister SENT OFF on Liverpool debut for high-studs challenge

Alexis Mac Allister was sent off on his home debut for Liverpool after catching Bournemouth’s Ryan Christie with a high, studs-up tackle.

The World Cup winner was stunned to see referee Thomas Bramall produce a red for the challenge. There was little reaction from Bournemouth players to the incident, but VAR chose not to intervene to reverse the decision, leaving Liverpool a man short for the remainder of the game.
The Argentine received his marching orders in the 58th minute for a high boot on Ryan Christie, and is now set to miss the Reds next three games.

Mac Allister makes it two seasons in a row that a Liverpool player has been sent off on their home debut, following Darwin Nunez who headbutted Joachim Andersen against Crystal Palace.
It was another incident in an eventful home league opener for the Reds, who made an erratic start, falling behind after just three minutes before rallying to take a 3-1 lead minutes after Mac Allister’s red.

Thankfully for Klopp, Liverpool were 2-1 up against the Cherries at the time, and despite being reduced to ten men, made things even more comfortable minutes later when Diogo Jota made it 3-1.
