Even Gary Neville expressed disbelief at the controversial VAR decision that went against Liverpool in their 1-1 draw with Manchester City today.
In the dying moments of stoppage time, Jeremy Doku’s challenge on Alexis Mac Allister led to the incident being reviewed by the officials at Stockley Park. Despite examining the replays, VAR Stuart Attwell opted not to summon Michael Oliver to the pitchside monitor for a closer look.
