Liverpool fans will rightly feel aggrieved after VAR deemed Martin Odegaard’s potential handball not a penalty-worthy offence.
The former Real Madrid man appeared to intentionally handle the ball inside his own box, leading to protests from Mo Salah.
A review from the technicians at Stockley Park (including under-investigation official David Coote), however, deemed the contact entirely accidental, with the scoreline at 1-0 at the time of writing.
It’s exactly the kind of interference you’ll see punished elsewhere this season, though not at Anfield it seems!
