Daily Mirror IconSportFootballLiverpool FCLiverpool teenager Amara Nallo was given a start in defence on Wednesday night but he was sent-off against Crystal Palace meaning he's been dismissed on his only two appearancesLiverpool defender Amara Nallo was shown a red card just 12 minutes after coming off the bench against Crystal Palace on Wednesday night - and has now been given his marching orders in his only two appearances for the club.The 18-year-old came on for Alexis Mac Allister after 67 minutes during Wednesday's Carabao Cup exit at Anfield. He made his senior debut in a much changed side that lost 3-2 to PSV in the Champions League back in January.That was an evening to forget though with Nallo, who was only on the pitch for four minutes after coming on in the 83rd minute, shown red after he denied a goalscoring opportunity to the Dutch side.

It means that Nallo has played just 16 minutes for the Reds' senior side and twice been given his marching orders.Arne Slot was pleased to see his two senior defenders - Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate - went straight over to Nallo after he was sent from the pitch to console the teenager.READ MORE: Arne Slot accused of setting up Liverpool youngsters for failure in Carabao Cup exitREAD MORE: Arne Slot gives honest take on Liverpool job security after 'not good enough' admissionThe Liverpool boss said: "I didn't need to say that much.
