Tempers flared after Liverpool substitute Fabio Carvalho scored a late winner for his side in the 98th minute to seal a dramatic 2-1 win at Anfield. Carvalho's volley hit the back of the net long after the five minutes of allotted stoppage time were up, but referee Andre Marriner appeared to add further time on after Newcastle goalkeeper Nick Pope received treatment.

Liverpool's coaching staff, unsurprisingly, celebrated Carvalho's winner wildly, and goalkeeping coach John Achterberg made a point of sticking two fingers up. Objects were then thrown in the direction of Liverpool's coaching staff.
