Jamie Carragher questions decision not to send off Trippier for tackle against Man City

Jamie Carragher has questioned the decision not to send Kieran Trippier off for Newcastle after the player's knee-high challenge on Kevin de Bruyne during Manchester City's 3-3 draw at St. James' Park.

City's perfect start to the Premier League season hit a slight speed bump as Pep Guardiola's side failed to make it three wins in-a-row. It was an end-to-end game that saw City take the lead after just five minutes thanks to yet another goal from Ilkay Gundogan.

However, the Blues' domination did not last for long as they then conceded the next three goals, trailing 3-1 with just over half-an-hour to play. Erling Haaland started the rescue mission as he scored on the hour mark, before Bernardo Silva made it 3-3 only four minutes after the Norwegian netted his third goal in as many games this season.
