Arsenal: Why Noni Madueke avoided a red card against Liverpool as Premier League issue statement

The Premier League have issued a statement explaining why Noni Madueke was not sent off in Arsenal ’s win over Liverpool . As the huge Premier League showdown at Anfield entered its closing stages on Sunday afternoon, Madueke clashed with Alexis Mac Allister after the Liverpool midfielder had fouled Martin Odegaard . While the Gunners were awarded a free-kick on the edge of their own box, Mac Allister was not happy with the decision and had words with Odegaard - who was on the floor - and appeared to tap the Arsenal captain on the head.
