Portsmouth defender Tal Ben Haim was happy to see Liverpool midfielder Javier Mascherano sent-off in Saturday's win at Fratton Park.

Ben Haim was also involved in the tackle that led to Mascherano getting a straight red card in the first half, which Reds boss Rafa Benitez felt changed the game.

"I thought that it was a good decision by the referee," he said. "Especially as I moved the ball when he came. It's part of the game so you have to take it."
