Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson and Arsenal defender Gabriel have reportedly provided statements to referee Michael Oliver following their altercation during Sunday's Premier League meeting at the Emirates Stadium.
A flash point between the pair occurred following Michael Oliver's decision to award Arsenal a penalty, having seen Gabriel Jesus go down inside the area under the challenge of Thiago Alcantara. Players from both sides could be seen attempting to diffuse the situation as the pair exchanged words at close proximity, resulting in Oliver then going over to the touchline to address Mikel Arteta and Jurgen Klopp.
The Mirror have claimed Gabriel issued a complaint over something he heard and that both Henderson and the Brazilian defender shared their 'version of events' to Oliver after the full-time whistle. The report adds Oliver also held further conversations with Arteta and Klopp before sending his report to the Football Association as they continue their investigation in relation to this matter.
