PGMOL admit James Tarkowski mistake against Liverpool
Everton defender escaped red card for challenge on Alexis Mac Allister in Merseyside derby
Premier League referee chiefs have acknowledged that James Tarkowski should have been sent off for his horror tackle on Alexis Mac Allister during Wednesday’s Merseyside derby.
Everton captain Tarkowski initially played the ball with his sliding challenge but then caught the Liverpool midfielder high in his follow-through and was shown a yellow card by referee Sam Barrott.
