The Manchester United striker will avoid FA action.
There's no denying what was the biggest talking point during Liverpool's 0-0 draw with Manchester United at Anfield.
Prior to half-time, Lovren tackled Lukaku causing the Belgian striker to stumble over his body and hit the floor. During the collision, the heel of Lukaku's boot appeared to strike the head of the Liverpool defender.
The FA have decided not to pursue a case against the former West Brom and Chelsea striker, but ahead of Liverpool's Champions League match against Maribor, the defender was speaking with the media and he said that Lukaku "did it on purpose."
“I made a tackle there, I felt he was over me and he could move away but to be honest my point of view is that he did it on purpose. Even if he did it normally he would apologise after that but I saw that he was nervous during the game so maybe that was also the reason [why he didn’t apologise]," said Lovren.
Regarding the FA's decision not to punish United’s £75m summer signing, Lovren added: “that happened on the pitch and it is over. I cannot change it and no one can change it so that is what I am thinking about. This is not my decision. I cannot say I am disappointed but it is what it is. We need to move on. That is football, part of the game.”
