Speaking live to Fabrizio Romano after Newcastle’s controversial defeat, Isak did not hold back when addressing **Anthony Gordon’s red card**:
> “Everyone knows I want to join Liverpool and I love Liverpool, but after this atrocity and wrongful red card against my teammates, I can’t join a team who wants to win through cheating. And him—Van Dijk especially—he’s a big cheat. To VAR, you rigged this game. Let justice stand, because that’s never a red card.”
### Fallout From His Comments
The rant has **shaken the footballing world**:
* **Liverpool fans**: Outraged, branding Isak “disrespectful” and “unworthy of Anfield.”
