It's not the technology that is faulty though, it's the humans using it that are. I agree that Liverpool have benefited from poor decisions more than they've been hurt by down the years, but it really was shocking yesterday. I thought that although Jota could have no complaints, Curtis Jones' red card was harsh and words fail me about the disallowed goal - it was clearly onside and it emerged later that the VAR official did not bother checking it, prompting this statement from the referee's organistation.Originally Posted by Cleve van Leef
'The goal but Luis Diaz was disallowed for offside by the on-field team of match officials. This was a clear and obvious factual error and should have resulted in the goal being awarded through VAR intervention, however, the VAR failed to intervene.
'PGMOL will conduct a full review into the circumstances which led to the error.
'PGMOL will immediately be contacting Liverpool at the conclusion of the fixture to acknowledge the error.'
