VAR Review: Explaining the offside drama in Liverpool vs. Wolves (ESPN)

Liverpool and Wolverhampton Wanderers played out a 2-2 draw in the third round of the FA Cup at Anfield. This is what happened with VAR.

[Liverpool](/soccer/team?id=364) took the lead in the 52nd minute when he [Cody Gakpo](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/249524/Cody-Gakpo) tried to find [Mohamed Salah](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/173896/Mohamed-Salah) with a ball over the top. Dean decided not to intervene in the on-field decision to allow the goal. There is no doubt Salah is in an offside position, but if the officials judge Toti's actions to be a "deliberate play", Salah cannot be penalised or offside. There are many factors which are taken into account, and an attempted header is judged more in favour of the defender than a kick. The VAR, Mike Dean, had to go with the decision of the assistant because there were no definitive calibrated camera angles to show the position of Nunes and the last defender when Hwang heads the ball. [Liverpool](/soccer/team?id=364) and [Wolverhampton Wanderers](/soccer/team?id=380) played out a 2-2 draw in the third round of the FA Cup at Anfield, but there were two controversial offside decisions.

Match of the Day pundits demand rule change after Liverpool vs ... (Birmingham Live)

Latest Wolverhampton Wanderers news from BirminghamLive as Match of the Day pundit slam offside calls in the club's FA Cup draw with Liverpool.

“The laws of the game say that (Salah’s) goal should stand but for a football fan, this shouldn’t stand. “Toti does the right thing, he tries to deal with the situation but (Salah’s) offside. "They don’t adhere to that rule every week (in the Premier League),” Murphy said. The rule shouldn’t even be there to be wrongly interpreted!” Salah’s equalising goal correctly stood, according to the current offside laws. The technology is there, we see it every week. [comments section…](https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/wolves-liverpool-motd-offside-decisions-25923350#comments-wrapper) Speaking about the freak occurrence that saw Toti’s winner ruled out for Wolves, Stephen Warnock said: “This is really difficult and really frustrating for all football fans. It’s not foolproof, it doesn’t always work.” It’s a bad decision.” Hwang Hee-chan put Julen Lopetegui’s side back on level terms but wolves were cruelly denied the win after Toti’s supposed winner, 10 minutes from time, was ruled offside by the officials due to Matheus Nunes’ positioning. We looked at this so many times.

Jurgen Klopp got glimpse of Liverpool future in Wolves clash if ... (Daily Express)

Liverpool and Wolves put on an entertaining show during Saturday night's FA Cup encounter.

Nunes is still finding his feet in English football with just one assist to show for his 15 Premier League appearances thus far. Matheus Nunes has long been of interest to the Reds and the possibility of a move to Anfield remains, although the board may have to act fast. Although Klopp could do without the inconvenience of another all-Premier League clash in his busy fixture schedule, it would give him another chance to take a close look at Nunes. There were some nice touches from the Dutchman but Darwin Nunez came up with the night's most memorable moment as he volleyed in Trent Alexander-Arnold's sumptuous cross. [referred](https://www.insidesport.com/sport-articles/pep-guardiola--matheus-nunes-is-one-of-the-best-players-in-the-world-today/3931) to him as one of the finest players in the world last year and when he begins to show that on a regular basis, Wolves will be well within their rights to hike up the asking price. Liverpool were strongly linked with the 24-year-old before his surprise move to Wolves in the summer and recent reports indicate that they could go back in for him later this year.
