JÜRGEN KLOPP ON HARVEY ELLIOTT DISALLOWED GOAL. “ONLY SOMEBODY WHO NEVER PLAY FOOTBALL WILL MAKE THAT AN OFFSIDE GOAL

But Elliott thought he had done so when he scored in front of the travelling fans. He ran on to Ryan Gravenberch’s pass and shot past the Burnley goalkeeper. Referee Tierney initially allowed the goal, but after checking the pitch-side monitor, he decided that Salah was offside and blocking Trafford’s view. So, the goal was disallowed.
Klopp was not pressed specifically about the first disallowed goal, which was chalked off by the on-field referee. Tierney was just a few feet away, and it’s understood that VAR saw no reason to change the call. Hooper felt there was ‘not enough evidence’ to find a clear and obvious error.
These calls meant Liverpool had to nervously hold onto their slim lead as Vincent Kompany’s team gained confidence. However, Diogo Jota, who hadn’t played since November 25, came off the bench and secured the win from a tight angle. This victory puts the Reds at the top of the Premier League, ahead of Arsenal who play West Ham on Thursday.
Liverpool.com says: Strong words from Klopp, and they probably would have been stronger if Liverpool hadn’t won! Putting ex-players in the VAR room probably wouldn’t be the fix he envisions, but he is right to be frustrated by the decisions.
The first one was a pretty standard occurrence under VAR. Most would agree the original call was probably wrong, but the murky waters of clear and obvious prevented an overturn.
The second was a chance for VAR to come into its own. Having correctly spotted the offside, it could also have alerted Tierney to the push, but failed to do so, thus reaching a completely illogical and unfair outcome.
