Liverpool have asked Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL), the professional referees’ body, to explain two contentious decisions that went against Jürgen Klopp’s side during the draw against Aston Villa on Saturday.
Liverpool’s hopes of qualifying for the Champions League were effectively ended by the 1-1 draw at Anfield, where the referee John Brooks disallowed a Cody Gakpo goal for offside and showed the Villa defender Tyrone Mings only a yellow card for a high, studs-first foul on the Netherlands international.
