VAR controversy overshadows Liverpool vs Wolves as 'no definitive angle' sees winner ruled out

The visiting side’s central defender Toti Gomes believed he had bagged the winner following on from a Wolves corner, but the goal was disallowed for offside. An entertaining clash ended 2-2 on Merseyside, meaning that a replay at Molineux will be required later this month.

The decision of the on-field assistant referee to disallow Toti’s goal was upheld by the VAR system overseeing the match. That is despite no camera angle being available to confirm the decision, with a pass back to the Wolves corner taker Matheus Nunes not having a sufficient camera angle at the stadium.
