The assistant ref elbowed the defender of Liverpool during the derby between Liverpool and Arsenal on Sunday.
After the end of the 1st half, Robertson walked to the referee and grabbed his arm. From the replays, we saw that Hatzidakis elbowed him in the face after that.
Andrew received a yellow card after that from Paul Tierney.
“PGMOL is aware of an incident involving assistant referee Constantine Hatzidakis and Liverpool defender Andrew Robertson at half-time during the Liverpool v Arsenal fixture at Anfield. We will review the matter in full once the game has concluded.”
Constantine Hatzidakis was also part of the referees’ team for the second half of the game.
