Liverpool moved to the top of the Premier League table with a 2-0 victory over Burnley at Turf Moor on Tuesday evening. Jurgen Klopp’s side scored after just six minutes through Darwin Nunez, but had to wait until almost the end of the match when Diogo Jota settled things. Speaking after the game, Klopp questioned the decision to disallow Harvey Elliott’s goal when the score was still 1-0.
In Tuesday night’s 2-0 victory over Burnley, Jurgen Klopp blasted a “ridiculous” decision to disallow a goal from Liverpool forward Harvey Elliott.At Turf Moor, Darwin Nunez opened the score after just six minutes, but the opposition couldn’t rest easy until Diogo Jota scored in the ninetieth minute.However, prior to that, Elliott’s goal gave Liverpool the lead, which Klopp believed to be a valid goal, only for VAR to rule it out for an offside call.Liverpool now leads Arsenal by two points as a result of the outcome, but the Londoners still have a game in hand.After the victory, Klopp spoke with Amazon and criticised the match officials for eliminating Elliott’s effort.”Only a person who has never played football will call this an offside goal,” he stated.He looked at it for five minutes, but they will eventually tell us that it is an offside scenario because it happens too frequently. It’s crazy.”That is a ridiculous decision.”Speaking about the triumph, Klopp commended his team for persevering through trying circumstances to win.He questioned, “What is really the Liverpool way?” It appears that we put obstacles in our path before figuring out how to get beyond them. Even though we had a fantastic game, the score was only 1-0. They had a chance to tie the score.Then, in the trickiest scenario of the match, Diogo Jota scored a fantastic goal.”Player of the match may have been Wataru Endo. The game might have been really odd without him.With the games happening nonstop over the holiday season, Klopp was anticipating their current extended break before their next encounter on New Year’s Day against Newcastle.”We’re creating a lot of chances,” he stated. We have four games in ten days. All we need to do is get through it.There are five days left before the next game, so perhaps we should take a vacation.
