The Manchester City winger was involved in a controversial incident during the 1-1 draw with Liverpool at Anfield a fortnight ago
Manchester City winger Jeremy Doku has spoken out about his controversial chest-high last-minute challenge on Liverpool's Alexis Mac Allister during the two Premier League title rivals' clash earlier this month.
Referee Michael Oliver didn't call it a foul on-field and a VAR check also decided not to penalise Doku. But Liverpool's boss Jurgen Klopp was angered by the decision and said the challenge was "100 per cent a foul", as did many experts.READ MORE: Liverpool's deluded response to penalty call paints false picture
"No, it was a risky challenge. I could have handled it differently. I still think it wasn't a penalty but I know some other referees would have given it. But it wasn't a penalty so I was happy."For me, it wasn't a penalty, but I understand why some people are angry and why the Liverpool fans think it was a penalty."
