Masch escapes ban

Last updated : 24 September 2009 By Al Campbell
Sky Sports were calling for the Liverpool midfielder to face action after catching Leeds striker Jermaine Beckford in the face with his arm while turning round. However, referee Alan Wiley, who missed it, has reviewed the incident and said he would not have issued a red card had he seen it at the time. This means Mascherano escapes a ban and will face no further action.
