Mo Salah handed Liverpool a lifeline with a goal inside the final 10 minutes for the Reds and as the Egyptian King and Bobby Firmino attempted to grab the ball from the back of the net, Bruno Fernandes had other ideas.
The Portugal international rather bizarrely held onto the ball and wouldn’t let go of it whilst referee Michael Oliver just let the United man do what he wanted.
Our No. 11 did extremely well to remain calm and not lash out at Fernandes as many others would’ve done.
It’s rather bemusing as to why Oliver didn’t even decide to speak to the United No. 8, but are you really surprised?

See my other comments about Oliver. Clearly the man is a closet MUFC fan. Fernandez should have been booked for this unsporting behaviour and then sent off for diving to try and get a penalty. Oliver has refereed these games and none have been in LFC’s favour. No surprise there.
