Just after equalizing against Tottenham (2-2) this Sunday in the Premier League, Liverpool striker Diogo Jota thought he would benefit from a penalty for a charge from Emerson, but the referee, Paul Tierney, did not not flinched. Much to the chagrin of a very upset Jürgen Klopp at the final whistle.
“Mr. Tierney tells me he thinks Diogo stops on purpose because he wants the foul. First of all, if you want to shoot you have to stop because you can’t shoot at that point. It would help if you’ve played soccer yourself in the past, “the Reds coach at Sky Sports first tackled, before moving in.” I really don’t know what problem this referee has with me. I have no problem with any referee … other than him. The draw against Tottenham made sense this (Sunday) night, but it was crucial, a key moment in the game. “
This decision did not prevent the Scousers from taking the advantage later before being equalized after a very intense shock.
