Chris Sutton claimed that Liverpool 'may have got away' with a potential red card offence at Portman Road on Friday night.
The Reds surged into a 2-0 lead against Ipswich inside nine minutes thanks to a brace of Alexander Isak goals, both of which were set up by Cody Gakpo, although the home side asked a few questions of the visitors later in the first half.
Seven minutes after the interval, Jeremy Jacquet was shown a yellow card by Darren England for a collison with Tractor Boys striker Emersson near the halfway line.
That prompted Sutton to say on co-commentary for Sky Sports that the Liverpool defender 'has had the odd clumsy moment in this game', perhaps referring to a first-half moment of hesitation between him and Alisson Becker inside the Reds' penalty area.
Just a couple of minutes after being booked, the 21-year-old took a heavy touch near the sideline and gave the Ipswich striker the chance to steal the ball off him, with the Frenchman then tripping his opponent but not being penalised by the referee.
