Liverpool's Slot admits regret after red card in Merseyside derby

Liverpool manager Arne Slot expressed regret over his red card during the dramatic 2-2 draw against Everton, admitting that 'emotions got the better of me' after witnessing James Tarkowski's equalizer in the eighth minute of stoppage time. Slot's dismissal came after he approached referee Michael Oliver following the match, leading to a chaotic scene that involved on-pitch confrontations among players. He acknowledged that the extra time played exceeded the announced five minutes, contributing to his emotional response. Currently under investigation by the Football Association, Slot refrained from commenting on the specifics but hoped to handle similar situations better in the future. The incident also saw Liverpool's Curtis Jones and Everton’s Abdoulaye Doucoure receive red cards after a post-match altercation. Slot is set to return to the touchline for Liverpool's upcoming match against Wolves while awaiting the FA's decision regarding his actions.
