The British media "The Times" reported that the Premier League expert panel has ruled that Van Dijk's goal against Manchester City in the last round of the Premier League should be ruled valid.
In the 38th minute of the Manchester City vs Liverpool match, Van Dijk scored with a header, but the referee team on duty determined that Robertson was offside and interfered, and the goal was invalidated.
It is reported that a group composed of three former players and coaches, a Premier League representative and a representative of a referee company official overturned the referee's decision.
This goal could have equalized the score for Liverpool. Liverpool was very angry about this. They contacted Webber, the director of the referee company, on Monday to express their concerns about the way the penalty was awarded, and pointed out that the corresponding standards were not implemented.
It is reported that the expert panel supports Liverpool's position. This result is bound to trigger a new round of dissatisfaction with Liverpool's penalty. "The Times" was informed that the expert panel determined that the offside call by the referee team on the field was incorrect, but believed that the VAR Oliver on duty was correct in not overturning the original call of the ball.
The reason is that VAR can only overturn the referee's decision when it finds a "clear and obvious misjudgment", but it cannot be used to overturn an objectively established offside call.
Just like this time Robertson made an action in an offside position and VAR verified this, then the subjective interpretation of the referee and the assistant referee will have final effect.
