This exciting 3-2 victory for the Reds made the audience nervous, and 16-year-old player Engumoha scored the winning goal. Sky Sports also launched a new feature - the referee camera.
When Liverpool midfielder Heraffenberg scored a long-range shot, the body camera worn by referee Simon Hooper just captured the best viewing angle. Sky Sports played the goal scene from this referee's perspective, but some fans were not satisfied with it.
Many viewers said that they had motion sickness when watching the referee's goal scene. One fan said: "The new referee's lens that they kept switching makes me want to vomit, I'm dizzy."
Another added: "The referee's lens is simply disgusting. People who proposed to add motion sickness to football games should be put in prison."
The third audience wrote: "That referee's lens. Do they want the audience to see vomiting?"
Someone commented: "The referee's lens made the people across the country faint."
After the club's World Cup trial this summer, the Premier League official decided to introduce referee's camera this season. The FIFA Council had originally awaited feedback from FIFA to assess whether to approve the wider use of the device.
