Not only were there a number of questionable decisions from the officials but the Reds’ task was made that much harder by the fact they played the final 20 minutes of the game with nine men.
Curtis Jones was unfortunate to be shown red in the first half while Diogo Jota was sent off for two bookings in quick succession in the second period.
