Virgil van Dijk was sent off for a challenge on Alexander Isak in Liverpool's 2-1 comeback win over Newcastle.
With Isak running in behind, Van Dijk was deemed to have denied a clear goalscoring opportunity and shown a straight red card by referee John Brooks.
The call was not reversed by VAR and Van Dijk received the first red card of his Liverpool career.

Liverpool were galvanised by the sending off though and came from behind to claim a huge win courtesy of
