Trailing at the break and dominating in the second half, Liverpool managed to equalize for Manchester City (1-1), during the 28th day of the Premier League, this Sunday afternoon. A bitter result for the Reds who had countless clear chances to definitively bury the Cityzens. An action at the end of the match could even have offered a penalty to Jürgen Klopp’s players. Cleats forward, Jérémy Doku committed a huge foul on Alexis Mac Allister in the area. Despite the intervention of the VAR, the referee did not flinch, no penalty was awarded (90th + 9). A decision that is debated:
“It was 100% a penalty. They will find an explanation. It was a 100% foul in all areas of the pitch and probably a yellow card. All the people with iPads around me were like “wow, that’s obvious.” Maybe they can hide behind the phrase “it’s not clear and obvious.” It’s of course a penalty but we didn’t get it and that’s very good. The most important thing for me is that we can play football like this. I saw so many sensational performances today”said the German coach.
