Stoke boss Hughes laments denied Liverpool red card

Published on: 30 November 2017

Stoke City fell to a 3-0 defeat against Liverpool on Wednesday through a double from Mohamed Salah as well as a goal from Sadio Mane.

The Potters were however left angered after Reds keeper Simon Mignolet was not given his marching orders for denying Mame Biram Diouf a possible equalizer at the Bet365 Stadium.

Mignolet appeared to deny Diouf a good opportunity in the 39th minute by tripping him just outside the penalty area.

Manager Mark Hughes said after the game: "It is clearly a goal-scoring opportunity, there would be down to 10 men and it is a completely different game.

"From that point we are trying to get back into the game and we had to take risks. Overall we are disappointed, but we got back into the game after a slow start.

"If we play with that determination and drive in our play we will be all right. It is clearly a massive game coming up against Swansea."
