Sports News] According to reports from British media,
Liverpool has officially requested the audio communication between referees
during their 1-2 loss to Tottenham Hotspur from the referee company. In the
Premier League match where Liverpool suffered a 1-2 defeat to Tottenham
Hotspur, Luis Díaz’s one-on-one goal in the 34th minute was disallowed for
offside. After the match, the referee company admitted that it was a
significant human error and stated that the incorrect decision was a result of
communication issues between the VAR referee and the on-field referee.
Subsequently, Liverpool issued a statement expressing their rejection of the
notion of a human error and stating that the decision did not follow the
correct procedures. They requested the referee company to release the audio
from the game. Currently, live broadcasting of Premier League referee audio is
not allowed, and according to regulations from organisations like FIFA,
commentators covering the match inside the stadium can hear the referee’s
conversations. The referee company has already rejected requests from fans to
disclose the content, which has sparked discussions about their integrity.
