On September 26, in the third round of the EFL Cup, Liverpool advanced to the next stage with a 5-1 comeback victory over West Ham at home. Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher severely criticized Darwin Nunez, stating that his clumsy foul near the end of the first half led to giving away a free kick to the opponent.
As the first half was about to conclude and the score was 1-1, Ings was controlling the ball with his back to the goal, just one meter away from the sideline, posing no threat to Liverpool. However, Nunez fouled him from behind, resulting in a free kick for West Ham. Fortunately, West Ham did not score from this free kick.
Carragher was furious about Nunez’s foul, and he harshly criticized him: “It was truly a clumsy foul. When the opponent posed no offensive threat, he recklessly knocked down the player from behind. Honestly, I really cannot understand what Nunez was thinking at that moment. I believe Liverpool should fine Nunez. If I were the coach, I would definitely do so.”
