The Liverpool defender's dad says he doesn't hold the Man City star responsible for the incident with his son
The father of Joe Gomez has refused to blame England star Raheem Sterling for the altercation that left his son with a scratch under his eye.
Sterling was involved in a physical confrontation with Gomez after reporting for national team duty on Monday, with the Manchester City man dropped by Gareth Southgate from the squad set to play in the Euro 2020 qualifier against Montenegro on Thursday.
The incident was reportedly fuelled by tension from Sunday's Premier League blockbuster between Gomez's Liverpool and Sterling's City, as the pair clashed during the match in the Reds' 3-1 win.
