Virgil van Dijk was shown a red card following a challenge on Newcastle’s Isak.
The decision sparked immediate outrage from the Liverpool players who deemed the punishment excessively severe.
In partiuclar Van Dijk was seen absolutely raging as he was told to walk off. As he was leaving the pitch, he engaged in a heated exchange with the fourth official. A video captured him appearing to tell the official, “F**k off, do not touch me.”
This furious reaction from Van Dijk could potentially lead to further disciplinary action from the FA, potentially resulting in an extended ban and/or a fine.

Erling Haaland: “It was an unforgettable season for the Man City team and for me personally.
Winning the Treble was something I never imagined, so to achieve that with such a special group was amazing. John, Rodri, Ruben and Kevin all deserve their place in the TOTY and I am delighted that their efforts have been rewarded with this recognition too.
We created some incredible memories last season, but now we want to do the same again this year. We have started the season well and we need to keep going."
