The refereeing situation in Liverpool is still bad. Despite the fact that the Reds have experienced some unfavorable refereeing this season, which has significantly impacted the final score, such as Luis Diaz’s goal against Tottenham, which might have been the Reds’ equalizer or reversed the game’s outcome.
Even though Jürgen Klopp has always been outspoken about his feelings toward the officials and the players have also spoken out against these enduring anomalies, it doesn’t seem to matter and the Reds continue to be wronged, so this doesn’t seem to change. Colombian Luis Diaz was clearly brought down in the Seagulls box during the game against Brighton, but Anthony Taylor refused to award him a clear-cut penalty.
Another illustration of the poor quality of refereeing was this. The play, which enraged the team’s supporters, players, and coaching staff, and undoubtedly altered the course of the game because it might have led to a penalty in Liverpool’s favor and a different result, went unmentioned by PGMOL President Howard Webb. Webb recently expressed his opinions about the play, which is why.
After two straight errors this season, in addition to the errors against Chelsea and Newcastle, it does not appear to be a coincidence and there seems to be a pattern for referees to incorrectly score during Liverpool’s games.
