Klopp doesn’t understand why Wolves had a late winner disallowed

Liverpool supporters were just as confused as everyone else when Wolves had a late winner disallowed for offside at Anfield and Jurgen Klopp was also struggling to reason with the decision after the match.

Speaking at his post-game press conference, the 55-year-old said: “I really don’t know. In the field I couldn’t see him, so I had no idea. For me, I thought it’s a goal.

“It was the player in the left corner who could have been offside. We have an angle, which I saw in the locker room, where he could be offside, but I wouldn’t swear to it, or whatever they say, but he could be. But I think the VAR did not have that angle, if I’m not mistaken, that’s what I heard.”

It’s impossible to see that decision for most people inside the stadium and certainly from the angle our boss would have initially seen the incident, but VAR is there to help make the right decision.

It’s not easy for visiting supporters to accept but the German went on to explain how similar things happened to us against Arsenal earlier in the campaign and that’s just football, some decisions go your way and some go against you.
