Liverpool (H) | PL | Post Match Thread

Am I missing something. Maybe the rule has changed again but I thought that the goalkeeper is not allowed to touch the goal frame.

Goalkeeper position and movement
  • The goalkeeper must be on the goal line, between the goalposts, and facing the kicker.

  • They must not touch the goalposts, crossbar, or net before the ball is kicked.

  • The goalkeeper can move along the goal line and jump, but at least part of one foot must be on, in line with, or behind the goal line when the ball is kicked.
 
I’m glad it was ruled out. I’d be annoyed if it was against us though.

By trying to get out of the way of it, he’s made himself active. Seems counter productive and one of those things that have gone for us today.

I don't see the confusion. He is offside. He moves. He therefore commits an action offside.

He may or may not be impacting the line of vision, but he is without doubt impacting play. If he doesn't move, the ball either hits him and doesnt go in. Or it hits him and goes in, but then is disallowed because he was offside. So his action interferes.
 
Thais was a thrilling performance and I’ve not enjoyed a Sunday Evening so much in a long time. Se were streets ahead of the scousers and yet they were praised to the skies for rebuiilding while ‘on top’. At a cost of a mere halo a billón! But they have replaced the wrong players…. With the wrong players? Salah looke depressed even before Nico got at him! Van Dyk was all over the place. Of the new players Wirtz lasted 80 mins before being subbed. He had looked nowhere near the level of any City midfielder. Ekitiké was subbed after a completely anonymous 50 odd mins. Where were the others. If Liverpool couldn’t compete in the market before, £500m later they sure as Hell can’t now. Great day!
Anonymous..? I didn't know he was on the pitch...

Only this.

It’s not as simple as that though. Bernardo also moves when Stones scores last season.

The biggest difference is that Robertson is on the same side of the goal as where the ball goes, so I can see that there is more scope for him to be deemed offside.

Had we had the goal disallowed, the VAR/ref threads would be going berserk.

It’s one of those marginal decisions where you could justify both sides and not be wrong. I’m just glad it went our way this time.
 
Why is it when a decision goes against the red scousers it’s a travesty and the media go all in calling it out,strange when decisions go against City or other teams it’s deemed as one of those things and it evens itself out over the season or just the shrug of the shoulders and get on with it ..
Yeah, imagine if Liverpool conceded a goal caused by an opponent pushing the goalie when he was in the air, making him miss his punch, like happened to us recently.
 
Liverpool players, fans,sports writers, pundits and all the other City haters are seething about the kicking City gave them. Gives me more joy than watching the game.Goal disallowed and penalty both straightforward descisions, but what about the nasty off the ball foul on Foden by that slimy Szoboszlai caught by the commentator but not by the officials? Nobody talking about that.
 
Fucking main news story on sly sports, they even had stuttering karveh, well, stuttering. Apparently the dippers haven’t complained for themselves but for the good of the game, bless em. Fucking help us at candlefield later in the season
Had greatest hits radio on in the car and it was on that too. No escape ffs. Christ, it’s relentless.
