STEVEN GERRARD secara mengejutkan diusir wasit setelah bermain 38 detik saat pertandingan berlangsung di Anfield, setelah menginjak kaki gelandang Manchester United Ander Herrera.
Legenda Liverpool itu masuk starting line-up yang disusun Brendan Rodgers yang mengakibatkan skuad asuhannya kocar-kacir menghadapi serangan agresif lawan bebuyutannya di liga utama Inggris.
Aksi Gerrard memicu kesulitan besar bagi timnya setelah aksi gemilang Juan Mata mencetak gol. Wasit Martin Atkinson tak punya pilihan lain untuk mengusir kapten Liverpool yang tampak linglung keluar lapangan padahal baru turun main selama 38 detik, seperti dilansir MailOnline.
Ketika Gerrard muncul dari terowongan pemain, mantan rekan setimnya di Liverpool Jamie Carragher kepada Sky Sports: "Dia harus bermain. Beberapa pemain Liverpool tampak mati langkah di babak pertama. Liverpool membutuhkan pemain yang mumpuni mengatur serangan di lapangan saat ini. "
STEVEN GERRARD was sensationally sent off within 38 seconds of coming on the pitch at Anfield, after stamping on Manchester United midfielder Ander Herrera.
The Liverpool legend was left out of the starting line-up by Brendan Rodgers but came on at the start of the second half to rally the troops.
However Gerrard found himself in deep trouble after clattering through Juan Mata before stamping on Herrera following a heavy challenge. Referee Martin Atkinson had no choice but to send off the perplexed Liverpool skipper after just 38 seconds of entering the fray.
As Gerrard emerged from the tunnel, former Liverpool team-mate Jamie Carragher told Sky Sports: ‘He had to go on. Some of the Liverpool players froze out there in the first-half. Liverpool need some football arrogance on the pitch today.’
