Sunday most of football fans witness some stupidity of Mascherano in getting himself sent off by referee. Although we do have symphaty towards him because he was the first player to be sent off after the dissent behaviour by Ashley Cole during the midweek.
But I don't think so because if you football fans outthere watching this game, it's quite clear from the first minute of games he already walking on thin line. He just couldn't keep his mouth shut to get on with the games, and secondly he kept swearing at referee 'F*** off' repeatedly, as we can read from his lips.
He, as a professional player from Argentina all the way to England, he should know how to behave himself on the pitch. He's doing quite well in containing C. Ronaldo and Andersson at bay up until he picked up his first booking. Things went from bad to worse when he couldn't keep up the pressure on Man Utd midfield and things boiled over upon F. Torres picked up his caution.
Why did he rushed across the field length to confronted the referee? Steve Benneth is no stranger to this situation and he should know, or at least the team backrom staff should let him know which referee is famous for such situation. Probably it's the heat of that moment Mascherano lost his mind for a split seconds and that's landed him in trouble. Up till that point of game, Liverpool was already having difficulties in keeping up with a fully charged Man Utd players, and he made it worse by getting himself sent off.
Then came the Liver'FOOL' manager, Mr R. Benitez. How on earth can he not understand the reason of Mascherano being sent off? He should see himself how Mascherano reacted and his body language during that moment. It's partially his own fault that Masc got red carded because he didn't act fast enough to calm down his players, and that's why his team lost as well. During big games like this, player's self discipline must come first before anything so that you are able to compete with 11 on field players.
So after these two days, listening to what pundits, staffs and players says, I think it's all Mascherano's own fault in this incident and he got only himself to blame for all this. He should just shut up and get on with his football, not F*** Off F*** Off F*** Off.......
