Jamie Carragher and the Sky Sports pundits gave their verdict on VAR's role in the Alexander Isak penalty decision(Image: Sky Sports)
Former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher was left fuming that the video assistant referee missed a penalty shout against Arsenal. Jurrien Timber avoided being penalised for a penalty for an apparent pull on Reds striker Alexander Isak as he looked to head the hosts level.
Carragher said: “One of the best goalscorers in the league is pulled back seven yards out and it stops him heading the ball - why does he need to make a meal of it? VAR do your job."
The former stopper was responding to Daniel Sturridge who felt that Liverpool would have had a stronger shout for a penalty if the Swede made more of a big deal about the tug. He said: “If he [Isak] makes more of it, it's a penalty. I don't think he makes enough of it... It's clear and blatant."
