Fresh footage of Darwin Nunez's battle with Crystal Palace defender Joachim Andersen shows what caused the Liverpool striker to lash out on Monday night.
Nunez, 23, was sent off on his Anfield debut after headbutting Andersen, 26. The score was 1-0 to Palace at the time and Liverpool needed a superb strike from Luis Diaz to salvage a 1-1 draw - a result that leaves the Reds four points behind Premier League-leaders Manchester City.
Liverpool supporters were perplexed as to why Nunez lost his cool on Merseyside. Yet video evidence shows the Uruguayan and Anderson were engrossed in a tense mental and physical battle throughout the game, with the latter winning this time.
