    Liverpool fans have been left furious after Ederson avoided a red card during Manchester City's clash with Crystal Palace on Saturday. <\/p>\n

    The Brazilian came flying off his line to close down Jean-Philippe Mateta – lunging towards the ball. Ederson caught the 26-year-old, missing the ball, sending him to the ground, with Paul Tierney blowing up for a Palace free-kick.<\/p>\n

    However, Tierney then brandished Ederson with a yellow card – and Reds fans are fuming he wasn't given a tougher punishment. One fan fumed: "How\u2019s Ederson not been sent off here then?"<\/p>\n

    "Van Dijk got sent off for much less contact and he had the best goalkeeper in the world still behind him. Ederson cleans someone out as last man and gets a yellow. Standard," a second said. And a third replied: "Disgrace! Ederson not getting a clear and obvious red!"<\/p>\n

    "Watch the Van Dijk red against Newcastle then watch the Ederson foul….only Van Dijk gets the red," a fourth fumed. And another added: "Shouldn\u2019t it be a red card for Ederson? He\u2019s the last man!"<\/p>\n

    Mateta was able to exact some sort of revenge in the second half, as he netted with Palace's first shot on target in the game. Jeffrey Schlupp raced onto a through ball, with City's defence at sixes and sevens, and he was able to pull the ball back to Mateta.<\/p>\n

    Mateta rolled the ball into an open net – cutting Palace's deficit in half.<\/p>\n

    Palace were then able to escape with a point when Michael Olise found the net in the 95th minute.<\/p>\n
