Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk took aim at Doucoure and referee Michael Oliver after the game, telling : "It was a very big provocation from one certain player. We all saw it and reacted as a team as we were able to do. You know what happens nowadays, it becomes one big tussle. Then it is not me who has to deal with it, it is the referee and today I am not sure he had it fully under control."
Everton boss David Moyes said of his player's red card: "I'm disappointed with Doucoure because we need him, we're down on numbers at the moment. We've got to be careful what we do. Discipline is never easy sometimes in these games and tonight was a game where quite easily sending offs happen."
Reds manager Arne Slot was also shown a red card after the game, seemingly for what he said to Oliver as he shook his hand.
