Sadio Mane Somehow Escapes A Red Card After The Most Deliberate Hand Ball Ever

Sadio Mane Somehow Escapes A Red Card After The Most Deliberate Hand Ball Ever

He was shortly subbed off.

Sadio Mane had a nightmare first-half. But he redeemed himself by netting the equalising goal against Crystal Palace. He was then lucky to avoid a second yellow card.

In the first half, the Senegalese attacker blocked a goal-bound Virgil van Dijk header. He then got a caution for diving, and had a goal disallowed for offside.

Though in the second half Mane finally came good by converting James Milner's cross to level.

Following his goal, he was once again the talk of the game.

Mane, on a booking, stopped play by grabbing a hold of the ball with Neil Swarbrick not blowing for a foul.

Palace players surrounded the referee, pleading for another caution. However, he failed to brandish a yellow card.

Mane was subsequently dragged off by Jurgen Klopp.

Naturally the incident got everybody talking:

Should Mane have picked up another yellow card for deliberate hand ball?
