Not a good look: Van Dijk pointedly refuses to shake Richarlison's hand

Liverpool is hosting Tottenham in the semi-finals of the English League Cup today, and an interesting moment occurred in the first half.

Details: Early in the game, Liverpool players committed a tactical foul in their own half to stop a Tottenham counterattack.

Richarlison, who was on the ground, extended his hand toward Virgil van Dijk, expecting help to get up. Van Dijk initially reached out but then deliberately withdrew his hand.

The reason behind Liverpool’s captain's actions remains unclear.

Reminder: The first finalist of the English League Cup is Newcastle, who defeated Arsenal yesterday.
