Sadio Mane Controversy

Ex-Liverpool midfielder Danny Muprhy labelled Sadio Mane a cheat for his contentious display against Crystal Palace. “I thought the referee got this right. There was contact. But the delay in going down meant for me it was a dive and a yellow card.”

“I still think that’s cheating and that’s a dive and a yellow card.”

Sadio Mane defended himself and claimed, “Honestly, I was thinking he was going to give a penalty.”

“He didn’t give it but I was not focused on that because it’s part of what can happen. I could have been lucky but it’s part of football. I was doing my best and in the end I scored a goal.
