Klopp wants Tottenham-Liverpool replay after VAR error

Very few matches have ever been ordered to be replayed and only when the referee has made an error in applying the laws of the game , this VAR mix up was just a monumental cock up in communication between the VAR team and the ref so absolutely no grounds for a replay . Old article on a game that was ordered to be replayed and a paragraph which sounds just like Liverpool today.


"While administrators in the professional game are not anticipating a flood of appeals, and privately insists such claims would be ignored, there is concern that it will only take one persistent club to challenge them. The most likely theoretical candidate would be a team that loses, due to a refereeing error, in a game where a lucrative promotion or relegation issue is at stake. Edgware could be cited as precedent as grounds for appeal."

Replay for error by referee opens 'can of worms'

For the first time in English football history a refereeing error has led to a successful appeal for a match to be replayed, creating the possibility of a "complaint culture" where results do not necessarily stand at the final whistle.

Jurgen Klopp has made two past comments that completely ruin his Spurs replay argument

Tottenham beat Liverpool 2-1 at the weekend, and to say that they won in controversial circumstances would be an understatement.

He knows there's zero chance of a replay so he's playing the victim card and trying to ramp up pressure to be given every contentious decision for the foreseeable in his favour. The FA need to tell him to wind his neck in or points will be deducted. Absolute prick.

Should get VAR to review his decision

 

[parj]

We should agree on the grounds that Klopp agrees to replay every match where VAR failed the other team and they gained from it.

Someone needs to remove Klopp's access to a microphone already..

 

[Led Revolver]

He needs to learn that referee DECISIONS influence games, and players DECIDE games. The way he’s going on is like a goal was wrongly awarded in the last minute! This decision happened in the first half!! He should have the respect and courtesy to accept defeat to a good opponent with good grace.

Next time you have a bad decision go against you Jurgen, how about trying to use it to get that bit of extra motivation out of your players in order to get a positive result, hmm!? It’s the way most great managers seem to do things. Asking for a replay is just whinging…

This whinging could in actual fact work negatively on future decisions regarding Liverpool..

Looked offside to me.

I've been posting this in every comments section I can find.

Funny how noone in the media seems to be mentioning the fact that the dipper's first goal resulted from a freekick that should never have been awarded. Udogie slid in and clearly played the ball but the ref awarded a free kick to pool and gave Udogie a yellow card. They then scored from that free kick. So that one ought to be chalked-off then, eh Jurgen??

It's a shame because I thought Klopp's initial reaction after the match was sensible and dignified. He's an intelligent man and has obviously been advised that a replay won't happen but has decided to to use the current sense of grievance to help his team feel united. Fergie used to do the same.

Mistakes happen. The audio file shows , predictably, that the officials, far from corrupt, were horrified that the mistake had been made. They should be sanctioned but not destroyed. Which one of us has never made a stupid mistake at work?

People need to think calmly how to avoid the same thing happening again. Make the protocol clear: don't say "check complete" but "decision is onside." And amend the regulations to allow the referee to correct a mistake after a restart in exceptional circumstances.

Liverpool were hard done by and very unlucky in that game. So are many teams in many games. It's part of the random nature of football that's the reason we love the game.

I honestly think.this is Klopp and Liverpool trying to pressure and force VAR and referees to give them a lot of favourable decisions this season. They will keep this pressure on for another couple of weeks.
Sad bit is i feel they will relent to the pressure and will favour Liverpool in coming weeks, months
IF they do i hope the affected teams apply the same pressure and crying as Klopp and Liverpool have....

I agree completely. There is no way in a hell a replay of the match happens but I guarantee they moan and moan for the next few months and they will get call after call after call to there way. Some of them blatantly wrong and when the opposition complains fuck all will happen

Premier League are not going to replay this game everybody knows it , Klopp can go on as much as he likes , it's not going to happen.
Of course in the days before VAR every weekend football highlights show contained continuous replays of goals that should have been ruled out , goals that should not have been ruled out and countless penalty claims with virtually every fan of every club complaining about injustice of it all, shall we go back ?

It's easy to mock klopp and Liverpool when we are standing on the other side of the fence.

But If we were the first team to have a incorrect decision against us in the history of football we would soon change our tune.

That decision changed everything. At 0-1 up, outnumbering us 10 players to 11 with only most of the game to hold on Liverpool were surely denied a definite win.

The fence we have been on the other side of?

I would argue we have had worse decisions

People actually suggesting this is a tactic to get favourable decisions in the future. Come onnnnnn, fucking hell, thank that through guys
