The Merseyside Derby match ended at Goodison Park, ending in a 2-2 draw. With the Toffees equalising in the 90+8 stoppage time. 

Of course, the lightning-fast Doucoure had to take the stage to celebrate by putting his finger over his mouth in front of the away team’s fans, drawing curses. insults, praises to his ancestors. And giving away his private parts as is customary. 

Jones, a Liverpool player, was very irritate and thought that such provocation could cause a bad incident. So he charged at Doucoure, pushing his collar. And they struggled until his teammates had to intervene. 

The result was that the referee, Michael Olijer, gave both yellow and red cards, sending them off. 

Ferdinand, a former Manchester United player, understood Jones’ behavior. Because he was initially representing the Kop’s supporters to quell their rivals. And saw it as a deterrent before it led to something unexpected. 

“I’ve been there,” Ferdinand say after the game at Goodison Park. 

“Back when I was a player, I remember when Manchester City striker Mario Balotelli celebrated provocatively in front of the Manchester United fans at Wembley – I was furious.”

“Curtis Jones must have seen Abdoulaye Doucoure celebrate the result in front of the Liverpool fans in the away section.”

“That guy started stirring up the crowd, and Jones wasn’t happy about it.”

 In addition, there are Everton fans who argue that when Trent Alexander – Arnold was happy to taunt the Man City fans , why didn’t we see a City player as hot-headed as Jones? 

Doucoure is initially banne for the away game at Crystal Palace (15 Feb ). While Jones is in custody for the game against Wolves (16 Feb ).
