Hugo Ekittike (23, Liverpool) is also being criticized for the winning goal. In the end, he even posted an apology.

He was substituted for Alexander Isaac at the start of the second half in the third round of the 2025-2026 Carabao Cup against Southampton (second division) at Anfield in Liverpool, England on the 24th (Korea time). Liverpool took the lead with Isaac's first goal in the 43rd minute of the first half.

However, in the 31st minute of the second half, Shea Charles was forced into a crisis by allowing an equalizer. It could have been an unexpected sacrifice for the second-division team. Fortunately, Ekitike turned the flow back in the 40th minute of the second half. Federico Chiesa calmly pushed in a perfectly conceded cross.




Ekittike was in jubilation. Immediately, he took off his uniform top and performed a ceremony to show home fans the back of his uniform with his number 22 and name written on it. But the joy was brief. He already had a warning.

The act of taking off one's uniform is immediately given a warning. Ekitike was sent off for the second inning of the warning. England's 'BBC' was perhaps glad that he knew he would be warned, and that it was worth the price. But what he seemed to have forgotten was the fact that he had already received a warning card.

After Ekitike's exit, he was outnumbered, but Liverpool advanced to the round of 16 with a 2-1 victory. However, Liverpool manager Arne Slot exploded. He is not stupid because it was the second warning. It would have been foolish not to have been warned"I don't know if I'm being a little honest, but if I scored like that, to Federico 'I owe this to you. The assist was great, the gallop was great, there was not much for me to do. I would have rebuked him.

And "It was ridiculous, it was not wise in every way. The problem is he was suspended for Saturday's game. This is by no means an ideal situation."

Ekitike was suspended twice for warning and one game following his exit. He will miss the sixth round of the English Premier League (EPL) against Crystal Palace on the 27th.

Ekittike, who is from France, bowed his head on his social media. He said 'I was very happy to contribute to my team's victory in my first Carabao Cup match. So emotions overwhelmed me. I apologize to the Liverpool family.

Liverpool transfused Ekitike, who played in Frankfurt, Germany's Bundesliga, in the transfer market this summer. The transfer fee was 82.4 million pounds (about 155 billion won) including the option. He has three goals and one assist in five matches in the EPL.

The slot manager said "It would be very surprising if he did that again. I'm still young, so I'll learn from it. I'm sure I won't do that again," he added. Ekitike couldn't even laugh at the winning goal.
