New York State

Arne Slot was given a red card by referee Michael Oliver in the immediate aftermath of Liverpool’s 2-2 draw with Everton on Wednesday night.

Liverpool appeared to be on course to go nine points clear at the top of the Premier League as Mohamed Salah put Slot’s side 2-1 ahead with 17 minutes remaining at Goodison Park.

However, James Tarkowski netted a last-gasp equalise in the eighth minute of injury time to salvage a point for Everton in their final Merseyside derby before they move to their new stadium.

Everton midfielder Abdoulaye Doucoure sparked a mass brawl between both sets of players after he goaded the Liverpool supporters moments after the full-time whistle.

Both Doucoure and Curtis Jones were sent off for their part in the bust-up, which required both police and matchday stewards to intervene.

Slot was also given a red card after he appeared to shake Oliver’s hand in an aggressive manner. As soon as Slot released his grip, Oliver immediately reached to his back pocket.

Slot’s conversation with Oliver was just out of view of the camera, however, a second camera caught the Liverpool manager asking the referee: ‘You gave me a red for that?!’

Liverpool’s assistant coach, Sipke Hulshoff, was also sent off by Oliver in the aftermath of the game.

Slot, who will now be absent on the touchline for Liverpool’s Premier League match against Wolves this Sunday, was prevented from speaking to the media after the game because of the rules of his red card.

Speaking after the game, Virgil van Dijk criticised Oliver’s handling of the match.

‘You saw how they celebrated the goal and they have all the right to,’ he said.’ Van Dijk said.

‘But I think Doucoure in the end wanted to provoke our fans, that is what I saw, and Curtis didn’t think that was the right thing to do.

‘Then obviously you know what happens when there is a little tussle or whatever you want to call it.

‘I think the ref didn’t have the game under control in my opinion. I said it to him.

‘It did affect and both teams had to deal with it. It is what it is so we take a point and move on.’

The draw at Goodison Park leaves Liverpool seven points clear of Arsenal at the top of the Premier league.

KYLE WALKER may have left Manchester City, but just like his old club he suffered a rough night in Europe on his Champions League debut for Milan.

The England defender, who has made three domestic appearances for the Italian side since ditching Manchester City, was run ragged by match-winner Igor Paixao.

Defeat at De Kuip leaves Milan on the back foot ahead of next week’s play-off second leg at San Siro, the winner of which could face Arsenal in the last 16.

Feyenoord, who sacked Arne Slot‘s successor Brian Priske on Monday, took the lead after just three minutes.

Paixao, who was being watched by a number of Premier League admirers, cut inside and unleashed a powerful shot at the near post which slipped past Mike Maignan.

Feyenoord’s electric Brazilian winger gave 34-year-old Walker a torrid time, beating him time and again with direct runs down the left.

Rafael Leao should have equalised in the first half but fluffed a golden chance on the break.

Milan, who dropped Tammy Abraham to the bench in favour of ex-Feyenoord man Santiago Gimenez, plugged away in the second half but could not find a way through.

Paixao almost doubled his tally with an audacious effort from the half-way line after robbing loanee Walker on the ball as he continued to torment.

Nigerian wideman Samuel Chukwueze then blasted a shot through a crowd of players straight at Maignan.

Gimenez got a round of appreciation from fans of his old club when Milan replaced him with ex-Chelsea hitman Abraham eight minutes from time.

But the Serie A giants rarely threatened seriously.

In fact, Milan defender Strahinja Pavlovic had to block sharply to thwart a lively late raid from Anis Hadj Moussa.

Nonetheless, a narrow loss means the Italians will fancy their chances of a return-leg revival.

BRITISH brickies will start building a dozen towns by 2029, Sir Keir Starmer announced last night.

The PM pledged to end England’s housing crisis by unleashing a new towns revolution, inspired by the King.

By the end of this parliament, work is expected to have started on about 120,000 homes.

The towns will be modelled on developments such as Poundbury in Dorset, led by the Duchy of Cornwall.

And not a brick will be laid by new migrant labourers.

At least 40 per cent will be affordable — with Sir Keir saying it will make the often unattainable dream of homeownership a reality for every family.

The new towns, each having at least 10,000 homes, will be spread across England, with 100 sites already put forward by local authorities.

Sir Keir said: “If you don’t own your own home, you’re usually at the mercy of someone else.

“There are a lot of people who want to get their foot in their own door.”

He vowed to confront the nimbys, including those in his party, saying: “In parliament you hear fine words on home ownership but if no one takes on the blockers it won’t happen.”
