Controversy strikes again as Liverpool have two legitimate goals disallowed against Burnley

Liverpool fans are fuming as they feel they have had two legitimate goals disallowed against Burnley. 

The first decision was in the first half, immediately after Nunez’s opener. Gakpo had the ball in the back of the net but referee Paul Tierney blew the whistle for what he claimed was a foul by Nunez inside the box.

The VAR had a look at it and despite video evidence showing there was no contact from Nunez, it did not overturn the decision and the goal was not given.

We are fighting against the PGMOL, Arsenal and Man City for this years title.

As they played out the replay showing Salah in an offside position, what they did not show was that the Egyptian was pushed into an offside position by a Burnley player.The goal was ruled out again.
