Everton manager criticises referee Craig Pawson’s decisionSean Dyche said he was astonished by Craig Pawson’s “incredible” failure to dismiss Liverpool’s Ibrahima Konaté in the Merseyside derby after 10-man Everton were
Everton had Ashley Young sent off for two bookable offences in the first half and were eventually breached when VAR spotted a handball by Michael Keane inside his own area. Dyche had no major complaint over the eventual decision to award a penalty, converted by Mohamed Salah, nor Young’s second yellow card. But he was left seething when Konaté escaped a second yellow for a trip on the substitute Beto with the game goalless.
Dyche said of the Konaté incident: “I have no clue about it. I asked the referee and he said he didn’t feel it was a bookable offence. I think a lot of people who were here today would be stunned it was not a second yellow, including their manager who couldn’t wait to get him off. He knows and we know. Fair play to him for his honest view. I don’t want to talk about referees but that one is incredible to me. And I got a yellow card. I don’t know what for.
