Darwin Nunez was shown a straight red card for a crazy headbutt as Liverpool’s frustrating start to the Premier League season continued. After an opening draw against Fulham, Liverpool were once again restricted to just a point as they drew 1-1 with Crystal Palace in an enthralling Anfield encounter.

Wilfried Zaha put the visitors in front against the run of play in the first-half, and the Eagles looked set to secure a famous win when Nunez both used and lost his head on the hour mark. Luis Diaz equalised minutes later with a brilliant individual effort, but there was to be no late winner for the hosts despite their best efforts.
Liverpool’s attention now turns to next Monday, when they will look to pile the misery on Manchester United at Old Trafford as both side’s go in search of their first league win of the season.
