Tensions exploded after the final whistle. Curtis Jones of Liverpool and Abdoulaye Doucouré of Everton had a heated exchange, leading to a scuffle on the sidelines. Referee Michael Oliver issued red cards to both Doucouré and Curtis Jones. In a final twist, Arne Slot, Everton’s manager, was also sent off for unsporting behaviour.
“I think it was hugely important that Evertonians get to finish at their stadium in the best way possible”
