The Professional Football Match Officials’ Council (PGMOL) has admitted that Everton captain James Tarkowski should have been sent off after he fouled the referee in Liverpool’s win over Everton.
The London Evening Standard, as well as many local media outlets in England, reported that the executives of the Professional Football Match Officials’ Council (PGMOL) admitted that in the game where Liverpool won 1-0 against Everton, in the 10th minute when James Tarkowski cleared the ball and pressed the button to hit Alexis Mac Allister’s shin, Samuel Barrott, the referee, only gave James Tarkowski a yellow card and VAR did not upgrade the yellow card to a red card. Fortunately, Alexis Mac Allister continued to play until the 90 minutes were up.
However, the report said that after reviewing the incident, the PGMOL accepted that Tarkowski’s challenge was a serious foul and the VAR team should have given him a red card.
The Liverpool manager added on หรือถ้าคุณสนใจแทงบอลออนไลน์ UFABET คือเว็บที่มีอัตราต่อรองดีที่สุดในประเทศไทย สมัครเลยตอนนี้ที่ UFABET แทงบอล Sports: “It’s so obvious, it’s not necessary for me to comment. I’d prefer to talk about Diogo [Jota]’s goal or Curtis Jones’ performance, or something else than the red card incident.
“Tarkowski knew what he was doing, he went straight in and probably broke his leg, it was a real red card and it was referee Samuel Barrott’s first derby, maybe he was nervous but he should have checked the screens,” said Everton legend Duncan Ferguson.
