Law 12 (fouls and misconduct) part (f) indicates a player is guilty of misconduct if they strike or attempt to strike an opponent. So if he missed when he tried to headbutt the other player it doesn't matter - it's still a red card offence. He's been a very silly boy - any local Scouse can give him lessons on how to headbutt properly - it's not that difficult.
