FOOTBALL Liverpool’s Robertson claims he was elbowed by linesman but Roy Keane calls him ‘big baby’
The referees body in England is investigating the incident that happened during Sunday’s 2-2 draw between the Reds and Arsenal at Anfield
Although Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Jesus gave Arsenal a 2-0 lead inside the first 28 minutes, Mohamed Salah's goal in the final minutes of the first half and Roberto Firmino's header in the 87th minute allowed Liverpool to rescue a 2-2 draw.
Ramsdale saves Arsenal
Arsenal gained one point by failing to maintain their lead and now sits six points ahead of Manchester City in the standings. But, with a game remaining this season and a home match against Arsenal, Pep Guardiola's team can now win the championship by winning their final 9 league games.
If not for Ramsdale's two incredible stops of Salah and Ibrahima Konate in stoppage time, Arsenal would have lost the game which could have cost them three points.
Arteta said after the game, "When you concede at the end, it's always like two dropped points. But Liverpool had four big chances and could have scored a penalty [missed by Salah].

Jamie Carragher hits out at Granit Xhaka's for shoving Alexander Arnold
An exciting match between Liverpool and Arsenal that may determine the league title in May ended in a 2-2 draw at Anfield.
"You also need your goalkeeper in title races -- you need magic moments from your keeper and Aaron was there for us, just like Alisson has been for Liverpool so many times. But we look at ourselves in mirror and could have done better with some big chances.
"We started well in the first few minutes [of the second half] but then lost control. It became a very transitional game, very chaotic. Liverpool could score three or four, but it is true we could have scored two or three, so maybe at the end the score is fair."
Liverpool turn up the head in the second half
Rob Holding's careless tackle on Jota earned the hosts a penalty, giving Liverpool a golden opportunity to tie the game at 52 minutes. Liverpool came out strong in the second half. Salah, though, missed his shot. The Egyptian forward missed the penalty for the second time in a row after blazing a shot at Bournemouth in March.
