The Professional Game Match Officials Board, the body responsible for match officials in English football, has reportedly said there would have been "no complaints" from them had Everton been awarded a penalty in the Merseyside derby on Sunday.
Liverpool eventually ran out 2-0 winners after goals from Andy Robertson and Divock Origi, although at 0-0 Anthony Gordon was denied a penalty after he was seemingly felled in the area by Joel Matip.
Despite the nature of the challenge, VAR did not deem it suitable for review and the play continued.
