LIVERPOOL, England -- Hull City caretaker manager Mike Phelan had no complaints about Ahmed Elmohamady's dismissal in his side's 5-1 defeat at the hands of Liverpool on Saturday afternoon.

Elmohamady was given a straight red card in the 29th minute when he deliberately handled Philippe Coutinho's goal-bound effort in the penalty area when Liverpool were 1-0 up.

James Milner converted the spot kick and Jurgen Klopp's side made the most of their one-man advantage by running out rampant winners.
