Liverpool were held to a 1-1 draw after their new signing Nunez was shown a straight red card just before the hour mark when he squared up with Andersen and appeared to head-butt the Danish defender.
The result leaves Liverpool winless after two games -- down in 12th place -- and fans vented their frustration by contacting Andersen on Instagram, where he highlighted the abusive messages he had received. "Got maybe 3-400 of these messages last night. I understand you support a team but have some respect and stop tough online," Andersen said before sharing screenshots of abuse and death threats in his inbox.Reuters has contacted Instagram for comment.
Nunez's red card will result in a three-match ban and Liverpool boss Juergen Klopp -- who is left facing a striker crisis with Roberto Firmino and Diogo Jota injured -- said he hoped the Uruguayan would learn from his mistake.
