Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink expressed his amazement at the lack of a review for Naby Keita’s collision with Trevor Chalobah in the second-half of the Carabao Cup final.
The Liverpool star’s studs caught the 22-year-old in the upper thigh after missing the ball – an act former Red, Jamie Redknapp, suggested was deliberate from the Guinean international.
Admittedly, it’s difficult to see how our No.8 managed to escape without a card for his part in the clash.

Cleary, Ref Atwell was reluctant to issue any cards and while we are at it, if cards were to be handed out, Ruddiger and Mount should have seen yellow for simulation. Be that as it may, Hasselbank should just accept that it was a great game and LFC won. Maybe he should become a Ref and do a better job!!!!
