Liverpool formally request access to the VAR audio for Luis Diaz's disallowed goal
The audio conversation between referee Simon Hooper and the video assistant referee office at Stockley Park during Saturday's loss at Tottenham has been requested in writing by Liverpool to the PGMOL.
“And I can say immediately, even though probably some people don't want me to say, but not as the manager of Liverpool so much, more as a football person, I think the outcome should be a replay.
“That's how it is, probably will not happen. I think the situation is unprecedented, that it didn't happen before at that moment.”
However, Wolves quickly noted on their official TikTok account that the Liverpool manager may have a short memory.
They posted a video of Klopp saying it was an obvious mistake, something like this as far as I remember, never happened and added a caption which says, "Hang on a minute… 🤔 #Wolves #PremierLeague #Liverpool #VAR."
Back in January, during Wolves' FA Cup third-round match at Anfield, Toti appeared to score a perfectly legitimate goal that was disallowed.
The defender had scored a winning goal for Wolves but the lines man raised his flag for offside against Matheus Nunes who took the corner and then saw the ball rebound to him before making a cross.
The officials upheld the initial on-field offside judgement and the score remained 2-2 because the VAR was unable to access a video angle that would have provided sufficient evidence to reverse the call.
