Liverpool paid a heavy worth for his or her 1-2 defeat towards Manchester Metropolis on Sunday, February 8, 2026: Dominik Szoboszlai was proven a straight purple card late within the match.
The Hungarian midfielder was despatched off after a foul on Erling Haaland, with a Metropolis objective being overturned due to VAR intervention. This sanction means Szoboszlai will miss no less than one Premier League match, as per the usual guidelines for a straight purple card. The ban might be prolonged if the disciplinary committee deems the foul to be notably severe.
This absence comes at a nasty time for Liverpool, who should do with out their Hungarian captain within the upcoming essential league fixtures.
