it's after he collided with everton goalkeeperjordan pickford.in the studio for us with more on the news that will no doubt leave liverpool fans unhappy. absolutely, gavin. yeah, it's been the incident that's dominated sporting conversations all weekend, hasn't it? after that incident betweenjordan pickford and virgil van dijk. but we learnt this afternoon that jordan pickford won't receive any retrospective action for that challenge on van dijk — a challenge that we now know will keep him out for at least six months. now, the fa decided not to take any action because they say the incident was seen at the time by the referee, michael oliver, and the var. so that's only going to add to the frustrations of liverpool fans, who were disappointed enough at the time because there wasn't even a foul given against pickford. now, that was because van dijk was offside in the build—up to the challenge. well, the former premier league referee mark halsey told me earlier that the blame has to lie with var team. you've got the referee, which i can understand n

jordan pickford's decision making in the everton goal has been in the spotlight recently. do about southampton‘s second from che adams, though. deflection rather than power getting the better of him this time. aspirations of a comeback for the visitors were over when were reduced to ten men. the refereejudging this from lucas digne a straight red. so, everton‘s unbeaten start to the everton's unbeaten start to the season everton's unbeaten start to the seasonis everton's unbeaten start to the season is at an end, with their influential forward barely touching the ball all match. the explanation for this scoreline then perhaps easier to pinpoint. and manager carlo ancellotti called that red card a joke and suggested the officials were making amends for not sending off richarlison orjordan pickford in the merseyside derby last weekend. that's a red card was a joke, i think that, i don't know why, i don't know why. maybe the fact that there were a lot of talk about pickford, richarlison, iguess liverpool affected the decision because i think everyone knows that it was not a r

maybe the fact that there were a lot of talk about pickford, richarlison, i guess liverpool affectedne knows that it was not a red card. but we are going to appeal. i think to lose a player like lucas digne for this for three games is not fair. in the second game of the day in the premier league newcastle rescued a late point, drawing 1—1 with wolves. after a largely forgettable first half, rauljimenez put wolves ahead with a terrific strike. thats his second in consecutive matches. it looked like that would be the winner until with two minutes remaining jacob murphy sneaked in a free kick for an equaliser. arsenal and leicester are the late game. kicked off at quarter past seven. the latest from the emirates, it is goalless at the moment. there was huge drama in the scottish premiership as champions celtic were held to a 3—3 draw at aberdeen. a penalty in injury time securing a point for the home side. as adam wild reports. planning and plotting at pittodrie, celtic desperate to avoid a third consecutive defeat. and whilst they dominated early, it was aberdeen who led at half—time.

i do not want to say jordan pickford wanted to do it, but it is of course not a challenge a goalie canre is another player and if it is not offside it is a 100% penalty. manchester city manager pep guardiola got the better of his former assistant mikel arteta as city won 1—0 at the etihad, raheem sterling with the only goal of the game. manchester united also won, while chelsea and southampton drew 3—3. celtic manager neil lennon says his side can't afford to live off the past as scottish premiership champions after losing the first old firm derby of the season at home to rangers. two conor goldson goals earned rangers a 2—0 victory and takes them four points clear at the top of the table. lennon was furious even before the match started, because his team selection was leaked. he says he'll investigate the matter. and one of the biggest boxing bouts of the year has seen a huge upset, with american teofimo lopez ending the unbeaten run of ukrainian vasyl lomachenko to unify the lightweight division in las vegas. lomachenko was the odds on favourite with the bookies, but was beaten unani
