Jamie Carragher and Gary Neville have labelled Darwin Nunez’ red card as ‘a moment of madness’ after the Liverpool striker headbutted Joachim Andersen.
The Reds came from behind to draw 1-1 at home to Crystal Palace thanks to Luis Diaz’ stunning striker, making it just two points from their opening two games - four points off the imperious Manchester City. The Colombian fired home just four minutes after £64million summer signing Nunez was shown a straight red for a wild headbutt on Palace defender Andersen.
The 23-year-old cut a frustrated figure during his home debut, missing a great chase early on before striking the post with a scuffed shot. And when Andersen confronted the striker over a coming together, the Uruguayan snapped and went head-to-head with the Dane - something Neville described as ‘a moment of madness’.
