Jurgen Klopp demands Tottenham and Liverpool REPLAY controversial clash as Luis Diaz offside row rages on
Jurgen Klopp wants a REPLAY as the fallout from Tottenham's offside row win over Liverpool continues to dominate the English Premier League.
Spurs won the hotly-anticipated clash 2-1 but it was the officials at the middle of it all. Klopp's team played the final 20 minutes with nine men and eventually lost 2-1 to Son's 96th-minute winner. Despite Curtis Jones and Diogo Jota being shown red, though, it's an early offside decision in the game that has kicked off post match bedlam.
Luis Diaz thought he'd opened the scoring on 36 minutes but was wrongly ruled out for offside by VAR Darren England. It's led to an apology from PGMOL and an admission that it was a "significant human error," but that admission hasn't eased the fury. A complaint from Liverpool got the audio for the interaction between England and match official Simon Hooper released publicly and they've claimed the incident damages the "sporting integrity" of the Premier League."
And Klopp has followed up on that fury by asking to have the match replayed. The Liverpool boss said: “I think the only outcome for Tottenham-Liverpool game should be a replay. It probably won't happen. I think it is so unprecedented it didn't happen before."
