Reaction from the Everton manager after the clash with Liverpool on Saturday
Sean Dyche was left angry and baffled by the controversial decision not to award a second yellow card to Ibrahima Konate.
Instead, referee Craig Pawson offered him leniency - a decision that led to Dyche getting booked as he contested the call. Speaking after the match, which Everton went on to lose 2-0, Dyche said he could not understand the decision. Dyche said: “I have no clue. I have asked the referee, he said he didn’t feel it was a bookable offence and he felt that straight away. I don’t know what is then. I would like to think there are a lot of fair minded people in football and people here today would be stunned that is not a second yellow.
Dyche said the decision was particularly difficult to understand given some of the other bookings dished out - and some not awarded - by Pawson. He added: “I have seen the footage back. Within a second he is going ‘no chance, no chance’. You have not even given yourself thinking time. With Ashley Young, he stepped away and decides it is a yellow. Why did he not do it with this?
