Luis Diaz thought he had put Liverpool ahead at Spurs, only for the assistant to rule him offside; game resumed after a brief VAR check but no lines were drawn on the pitch in replays; PGMOL said after Spurs win that a significant human error meant the goal was incorrectly disallowed
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp, whose side finished the game with nine players after Curtis Jones and Diogo Jota were sent off, criticised the"unfair" and"crazy" decisions made by the officials.when asked about Diaz's disallowed goal.
"The ball is between Mo [Salah]'s legs, they drew the line wrong and didn't judge the moment when Mo passed the ball right."Luis Diaz has a goal ruled out for Liverpool after being incorrectly ruled offside, with VAR Darren England failing to intervene.Andre Onana recklessly challenged Sasa Kalajdzic inside the Manchester United box but VAR Jonathan Moss failed to instruct on-pitch referee Simon Hooper to check the pitchside monitor for a penalty.
Asked in his press conference about PGMOL admitting to the error, Klopp added:"Who does that help? We had that situation in the Man Utd game. Did Wolves get points for it?"The decision was made really quick for that decision. It changed the momentum of the game.""Curtis steps on the ball and goes over," said Klopp."Not a bad tackle. It looks different in slow motion. He steps full throttle on the ball and goes over the ball. That is unlucky.
"At the time, I thought that was onside. Then all of a sudden I heard in my ear ‘check complete’ from the VAR officials to the referee. There was no lines. It was so quick. Something was obviously wrong."I’ve been asking ‘have we got the right cameras at these stadiums?’ We never seem to be in line anymore. The groundman never get the lines wrong on the pitch, the accuracy is incredible.
"I’ve defended VAR as being a matter of fact but there’s been two or three in the last few weeks where I’ve felt behind the scenes the angle wasn’t right.”"Everybody at home can see that's onside. It makes you wonder how many other situations they've got wrong - where have they been drawing the lines on shirts, lengths of shirts. We need clarification to make this game as simple as possible especially on disallowed goals like that.
