Liverpool manager Slot addresses red card in Merseyside derby: ‘Emotions got the better of me’

Associated Press  

LIVERPOOL, England — Liverpool manager Arne Slot has regrets about his conduct that earned him a red card in the wild scenes after the Merseyside derby during the week. He was one of four people to receive red cards after the game, along with his assistant, Sipke Hulshoff, and two players — Liverpool’s Curtis Jones and Everton’s Abdoulaye Doucoure — following their confrontation. The Dutch coach wasn’t allowed to speak to media after the game, as per Premier League rules regarding managers who receive red cards, so he addressed the events for the first time Friday, saying “many things in extra time happened that led to me being quite emotional.” “The emotions got the better of me and if I look back, I would love to do it differently,” Slot said. “I should have acted differently after the game,” he added, “but it’s an emotional sport and sometimes individuals, out of emotion, make the wrong decision and that’s what I did.” Slot was speaking ahead of Liverpool’s home match against Wolverhampton on Sunday, and said forward Cody Gakpo was a doubt because of an injury that forced him to be substituted in the second half against Everton.
