Crystal Palace defender Joachim Anderson has labelled Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez's actions 'really stupid' after he was sent off for a headbutt on Monday.

Andersen had got under the £85 million forward's skin all evening with tight marking and the occasional shove.

Nunez became visibly frustrated with the defender as the game progressed, eventually reacting with a headbutt in the 57th minute that saw him sent off.
