Supporters were left bewildered after Liverpool midfielder Wataru Endo avoided a red card for a challenge on Brentford’s Christian Norgaard.
Endo made the challenge during Liverpool’s 3-0 win at Anfield but avoided a yellow card following a VAR check.
The Liverpool player lunged in and caught Norgaard on the shin with his studs. The decision over the punishment was a difficult one to make given that both players were lunging in for the ball.
Many onlookers were adamant that the 30-year-old should have been dismissed for his actions.
