Liverpool midfielder, Javier Mascherano finally admit and apologise because of his action being sent off by referee Steve Bennet last time at Old Trafford. They lose 3-0 to the EPL Champions. His behaviour and anger to the referee made him dissent by receiving the second yellow card after arguing about the yellow card received by Fernando Torres. He promise to become more professional after the incident. Here's the excerpt of the press conference with Mascherano.
Mascherano told The Daily Mail: "I apologise to everyone. I made a mistake and I regret this mistake. It was my fault.
"I am not a dirty player and I do not make a habit of showing disrespect towards referees.
"I don't like this and I can only think the high intensity of the fixture, against Manchester United, affected my behaviour that day. It was out of character, but I do not use that as an excuse.
"Looking back at that game, I was wrong to approach the referee. I approached him to talk to him, but I understand this was not a good idea.
"I reacted badly to the red card because I could not believe what was happening to me.
"I must learn my lesson and move on from this and forget what has happened. I hope people know that I try to be fair and that I have no intention to be aggressive.
"My disciplinary record has been good until now, but now I have to show that again. I always try to respect decisions by the referee and this is important."
