This is the most recent rumors and news about Liverpool. It was said to Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes that he was “lucky” not to be sent off after hitting Dominik Szoboszlai during the FA Cup.

In his explanation for not showing Bruno Fernandes a second yellow card during Liverpool’s match against Manchester United, Lee Dixon discussed his thoughts.


On Sunday, there was an FA Cup quarterfinal at Old Trafford between two fiercely rival teams. As Chelsea, Coventry, and Manchester City had already advanced to the semi-finals, a spot remained unclaimed.

Early in the game, Scott McTominay of United scored the first goal to give United the lead. That being said, just before halftime, Mohamed Salah and Alexis Mac Allister scored goals for Jurgen Klopp’s squad.

The midfielder was fortunate to avoid receiving a second yellow card for a hit on Dominik Szoboszlai at the beginning of the second half. After Salah’s goal, he had already been booked. Fernandes was called for a hit, but he did not receive a second yellow card.

Referee John Brooks was not asked to change his mind and give Fernandes a red card by VAR. One of the other commentators on the game, Dixon, stated that the player was “lucky” to have avoided being sent off.

“I’m looking at the Liverpool players and they are not going around the ref,” he said to ITV Sport.

“Szoboszlai’s foot needs to come off the ground to block Fernandes’s bullet as he runs down the ground to shoot.”

“That happens all the time, everywhere in the field.” However, given the current state of the game, VAR will reexamine that. Fernandes has a lot of luck in not receiving a yellow.

“He’s fortunate not to have received a straight red or a yellow.” I used to get one every twenty minutes when I played fullback.

Dixon continued, “If that had happened anywhere else on the field and he wasn’t booked, he would have received a yellow card.”

“Absolutely and fully.” I believe that if someone crosses the halfway line in that manner, the referee will show him a yellow card.
