Former Liverpool defender Stephen Warnock stuck up for Everton in the Merseyside derby after Ibrahima Konate avoided a red card at Anfield. At the time it was 0-0.
Former Liverpool defender Stephen Warnock has accused the officials of making a "stinker of a decision" in the Merseyside derby.
The forward doubled his tally and eased any nerves by rounding off the scoreline in added time. However, the game was not without drama as referee Craig Pawson opted not to send off Reds centre-back Ibrahima Konate, who was already on a yellow card, after the centre-back pulled down Beto, midway through the second half.
“It should be level, ten men each. It is terrible from the referee, a really cynical challenge from Konate,” Warnock told BBC Sport during the game. “Already on a yellow and tugs back Beto's shirt. A stinker of a decision." “You've got three people here that could have told him he'd gotten that wrong. Help each other out, tell them, 'you've got it wrong there, mate. It's a second yellow.' Also the audacity then to book Sean Dyche for complaining, it's a stinker of a decision.
