The Premier League clarifies the controversial moment during Liverpool's draw with Newcastle.
Sympathetic moment.
Newcastle teammates comforted Lewis Hall, who had performed excellently for almost the entire game.
Confident in ball possession, dangerous in attack, and strong in defense.
But unfortunately, he made a mistake by conceding a penalty in injury time, allowing Liverpool to equalize 2-2.
The Premier League clarified the moment when Hall fouled Liverpool's Víctor Muñoz, confirming the referee’s penalty decision was reviewed and upheld by VAR.
Referee: “He did not play the ball; it was a clear collision.”
VAR: “It was a collision between knee and thigh. We confirm the on-field decision awarding a penalty.”
