Newcastle United's Champions League-chasing rivals Liverpool closed the gap to the Magpies after yet another controversial VAR decision at Anfield.
The Reds scraped past Fulham thanks to a Mohamed Salah penalty but the awarding of the spot-kick dominated post-match headlines. Referee Stuart Atwell pointed to the spot after Issa Diop brought down Liverpool attacker Darwin Nunez in the box with fan opinion split as to whether there was contact.
Fulham captain Tom Cairney was not happy with the decision and has claimed Atwell even told one of his team-mates the penalty shouldn't have been awarded during a second-half conversation.
