According to reports, the Premier League has ruled out rescheduling the match between Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool.
Luis Diaz scored a respectable goal for the visitors on Saturday night with the score still 0-0 and Liverpool already down to 10 men.
As a result of what the PGMOL has later called “significant human error,” a goal was not given even though the on-field assistant had signalled for offside.
Darren England and Dan Cook thought a goal had been scored when they yelled “check complete,” missing the on-field offside call.
In response to Liverpool’s first request, audio footage detailing talks before and after the event has been made public.
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp addressed the topic at a news conference on Wednesday afternoon, saying that he had not changed his mind about the game from the weekend after hearing what had happened.
Spurs gained an advantage and won the game, but Klopp insisted that the “unprecedented” occurrence called for a rematch.
Spurs scored soon after the Diaz goal was overturned, and while Liverpool responded just before halftime, they ultimately lost the match at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in dramatic fashion after going down to nine men.
Football Insider maintains there is zero possibility of a replay in light of what has happened and been revealed.
Since no such precedent existed, there was no indication that the Premier League would consider such a step.
When goalline technology failed to confirm that Sheffield United’s first-half goal against Aston Villa was valid, a replay might have been requested following the 2020 Premier League match.
Liverpool suffered their first loss of the year, dropping them to fourth place in the rankings, two points behind league leaders Manchester City.
Spurs, meanwhile, are in second position, one point ahead of their most recent opponents, and two points ahead of the team in fifth.
