"He wasn't even going to call a foul!" | Iraola on Gravenberch red card after Liverpool lose to City
Ryan Gravenberch's dismissal has given viewers something to discuss beyond Manchester City's goals at Anfield. Beneath Sky Sports Premier League's full post-match interview with Andoni Iraola, the conversation centers on whether the challenge warranted a red card at all.
Liverpool lost 3-0, but Iraola's objection is more specific than frustration with the result: the interview's title highlights his contention that the referee wasn't initially going to call a foul. Viewers question the severity of the eventual punishment and discuss whether players' appeals should influence a referee's decision. One also singles out Gravenberch's performance before the dismissal.
The interview drew about 229,000 views in its first day, an ordinary audience for this channel's regular videos. Its comment section was a different matter, running more than five times busier than usual.
As we reported here, Cherki's finish was a talking point in Sky's match highlights. This separate interview shifts the attention from City's finishing to the decision that left Liverpool a player short.
