This Edson Alvarez red card v Liverpool (VIDEO BELOW) saw the West Ham midfielder get sent off for collecting two yellow cards in a matter of minutes. The first Alvarez yellow card against Liverpool came for a foul on Tsimikas in the 67th minute and the second yellow was for a tackle on Mo Salah shortly after the Egyptian forward had put LFC 3-1 up.
This Tsimikas head block vs West Ham (VIDEO BELOW) saw some body on the line stuff defending from the Liverpool left back in their Cup clash against the Hammers. Tsimikas attempted to dive with his head to block/clear Kilman’s shot with the score 2-1 in favour of Liverpool- they eventually went on to win 5-1. Reminds one of that famous Phil Jones defending with his head that went viral years ago.
West Ham put in a disappointing performance at the London Stadium (official crowd attendance 62,473) as they lost yet another home Premier League game, this time a derby fixture to Enzo Maresca’s Chelsea.
