Liverpool's young talent received 2 red cards in 16 minutes

Liverpool's 0-3 loss to Crystal Palace in the fourth round of the Carabao Cup on the morning of October 30 witnessed an unforgettable moment for young midfielder Amara Nallo.

Nallo (65) was sent off in the loss to Palace.

The 18-year-old was brought on by coach Arne Slot in the 67th minute to replace Alexis Mac Allister. However, just 12 minutes later, he received a straight red card for a foul on Justin Devenny. This illegal tackle resulted in Nallo being sent off and leaving the field in frustration.

Notably, this was the second time in a row that Nallo had been sent off in just his first two games for Liverpool. In his first-team debut in January in the Champions League, the youngster was also sent off just four minutes into his first-team debut in a 3-2 defeat to PSV. At the time, coach Arne Slot called the decision “a cruel moment for Nallo”.

Up to now, Nallo has only played a total of 16 minutes for Liverpool's first team but has received 2 red cards - a rare statistic in top-level football.

Nallo joined Liverpool in August 2023 after coming through the West Ham academy. He is a regular in the Under-21 team and has represented England at Under-18 and Under-19 level.

Despite a difficult start to his career, Nallo is still considered a promising talent. West Ham U16 coach Carlton Cole once commented: “Nallo has a great left foot, moves gracefully, controls the ball with both feet and always maintains confidence. Nallo's potential is really huge."
