Speaking on Premier League Productions, Keown said on 12 February at 9:39pm: “Curtis Jones overracts for me. It’s out of order.”
To which Michael Owen responded: “Doucoure, you can’t do that. That’s dangerous. You can’t condone Curtis Jones either.”
Michael Oliver had plenty to do not just in the game but after the game too as there was plenty of drama everywhere.
After the full-time whistle, Oliver brandished red cards to four different people in a shocking turn of affairs.
As many expected, Doucoure and Jones were the two to get sent off but Arne Slot also was shown a red card for something he said to the referee.
Along with the Dutchman, his assistant Sipke Hulshoff was also given a red as stewards had to separate the two sets of teams.
David Moyes shows he’s the right man for the job
The Toffees will undoubtedly take immense spirit from this result against Liverpool, using it as a stepping stone to build momentum for the rest of the season.
The draw, especially with the dramatic late equaliser, showcases the resilience and fighting spirit within Moyes’ squad.
This not only demonstrates that the Blues can go toe to toe with the best in the league but also reinforces Moyes’ tactical acumen in rallying his team under pressure.
The performance against their fierce rivals will serve as a morale booster, proving to both the players and fans that they have what it takes to compete at the highest level.
Moyes is clearly instilling a belief in his team, pushing them to match, if not surpass, the expectations set by their performances.
