Having made a fantastic start to the game by taking the lead through a Jetro Willems stunner, the last thing Newcastle needed was one of their own players to shoot themselves in the foot.
Sadio Mane’s equaliser for Liverpool brought the Reds back on track, but Martin Dubravka’s massive gaffe completely turned things around and undid all of the Magpies’ good work in the first-half at Anfield.
The Slovakian rushed off his line to intercept a pass from Roberto Firmino, but got his angles all wrong, and saw the ball ricochet off him and into the path of Mane to give Jurgen Klopp’s side the lead.
After seeing their side slip to defeat, Newcastle fans took to Twitter to slam Dubravka for his role in the disappointing result.
Many supporters of the Tyneside club revealed it was “horrendous goalkeeping” and that the 30-year-old had “bottled it”.
Some Magpies fans labelled his mistake as “inexcusable”, and tore into him for conceding such a soft goal.
Check out some of the furious reaction of Newcastle fans below:
