Everton manager David Moyes admitted he did not understand why the referee awarded Liverpool a winning goal to edge home 1-0 despite Luis Diaz being clearly offside and setting up Diogo Jota to finish. The
Toffees held their local rivals to a commanding finish in the 57th minute when Diaz crossed for Jota who fired home the deciding goal in the Merseyside derby. “
The players behind them got in the way before Tarkowski cleared the ball away,” Moyes said after the defeat at Anfield, referencing the build-up that led to the goal. “Liverpool
were clearly offside. I think the referee should have made that decision easily. I don’t understand why they didn’t call it offside. “
It hurts when you feel like you’ve finally got a result from something that shouldn’t have happened. “
We’ve played really well in the last two games against Liverpool. ทางเข้า UFABET สำหรับสมาชิกใหม่ สมัครวันนี้ รับโบนัสฟรี We drew the first one and today was a very tight game. And the difference was the offside goal. “
There was another problematic moment early on in the game, in the 10th minute, when Tarkowski brought down Alexis Mac Allister but referee Sam Barrott and VAR official Paul Tierney disallowed the Everton defender for a red card.
“My first thought was it was a clever challenge for a derby,” the Scot continued.
“It’s a challenge we might have seen a few years ago but I understand these days there’s a little bit of a difference in the timing of the challenge. “
So we were probably a little bit lucky but you can’t rule it out with a goal. The offside goal was a different incident which ended up winning Liverpool the game.”
