Gary Neville in commentary rightly questioned the validity of the decision, with Mane clearly having eyes for the ball.

Naturally, Twitter saw the incident and gave their view on a hugely debatable decision. Liverpool legend Robbie Fowler was one of the first to comment on the incident.

TWITTER REACTS

Ederson did have to be stretchered off after the incident but it is clearly a legitimate attempt to play the ball.

Liverpool may opt to appeal the decision after the match given the amount of debate on Twitter.
