Rute Cardoso was furious with Simon Hooper and PGMOL for their decisions

 

Diogo Jota’s wife Rute Cardoso has accused Premier League officials of “fixing” Saturday’s match between Liverpool and Tottenham.

 

Cardoso was furious with referee Simon Hooper and PGMOL for sending Jota off with two yellow cards in two minutes against Spurs, who won the controversial match 2-1 thanks to a Joel Matip own goal.

 

 

He was also irritated by the red card shown to Curtis Jones and the fact that Liverpool were seemingly unable to score after Luis Diaz was caught offside.

 

Cardoso took to social media to call out Hooper and the PGMOL for his decision on Saturday, which prompted an unprecedented statement from Liverpool and led to VAR officials being banned from future games.

 

He shared a video of Jota’s first foul against Destiny Udogie, complete with a clown emoji and a PGMOL statement with the words “rigged game” crossed out. Cardoso has 36.3K followers on Instagram, where he expressed his frustration with the officialsHe shared a video of Jota’s foul on Destiny Udogie with a clown emojiHe also shared a statement from PGMOL with the words “rigged game” crossed out.

 

Jota, who was introduced as a half-time substitute by Jurgen Klopp, received his first yellow card of the game in the 68th minute when Udogie tried to move down from behind to thwart Spurs’ resistance.

 

But replays show that Udogie stumbled when he felt pressure from the Portuguese forward – a point Cardoso highlighted.

 

 

 

Things went from bad to worse for Jota barely two minutes later when he was shown a second booking.

 

Udogie chased the 26-year-old down the right and tried to recover it with his leg dangling.

 

 

 

But the Liverpool star clipped the Italian, prompting Hooper to reach into his pocket for a second yellow card. Liverpool were also denied a clear goal after Diaz was sent off, for which PGMOL later apologized and admitted was wrong.

 

 

 

A PGMOL statement said: “PGMOL acknowledges that a significant human error occurred. PGMOL is conducting a full assessment.

 

– Luiz Diaz’s goal was disallowed by the referee for offside. It was a clear and obvious foul and should have been won by VAR intervention, but VAR did not intervene.’

Liverpool then took the unprecedented step of releasing an official statement about the incident. The club said on Sunday: “Liverpool Football Club acknowledges the failure of PGMOL last night. It is clear that the Laws of the Game were not applied correctly, resulting in a breach of sporting integrity.

 

“We fully accept the pressures under which the relevant officials work, but the existence and implementation of VAR should ease that pressure, not add to it.

 

“That is why it is not satisfactory that not enough time was allocated to make the right decision and that the subsequent matter was not dealt with.

 

“It is also unacceptable that such errors are already classified as ‘significant human error’.” All results should be determined based on review only and in full transparency.

 

“This is essential for the credibility of future decision-making, as it applies to all clubs whose expertise will be used to improve processes so that such situations do not happen again.

 

“In the meantime, we are exploring the options available because we have a clear need to move forward and resolve.”

 

VAR disallowed Liverpool’s goal against Tottenham, even though Luis Diaz was played by Cristian Romero according to replays. PGMOL have confirmed that VAR official Darren England (pictured) and VAR assistant Dan Cook (not pictured) are stepping down. for future matches

 

 

 

PGMOL previously confirmed that the two VAR officials involved in the colossal foul on Diaz’s goal, Darren England and Dan Cook, have been banned from future Premier League games.

 

It later emerged that the two demoted officials were in the United Arab Emirates two days before the massive hijacking, prompting PGMOL to investigate them more closely.

 

England and Cook covered the United Arab Emirates Pro League match between Sharjah and Al Ain from 8pm local time on Thursday. They completed their 16-hour round trip by flying back to London on Friday ahead of Tottenham and Liverpool on Saturday.

 

“Luiz Diaz’s goal was disallowed by the on-field referee for offside. This was a clear and obvious factual error and should have led to a goal through VAR intervention, but VAR did not.”

‘I am sick’ – Jamie Carragher highlights new VAR issue after Liverpool make Curtis Jones decision

 

Jamie Carragher insists he has “sympathy” for Curtis Jones after the midfielder was sent off in Liverpool’s 2-1 defeat at Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday.

 

Jones was initially shown a yellow card for a challenge on Spurs midfielder Yves Bissouma in the first half. However, referee Simon Hooper was quickly advised to review his decision on the pitch-side monitor after input from Video Assistant Referees Darren England and Dan Cook at Stockley Park.

 

Then, after being shown a slow-motion replay of the tackle, Hooper upgraded his initial yellow card to red and Jones was sent off. As it stands, the 22-year-old will miss Liverpool’s next three Premier League fixtures against Brighton & Hove Albion, Everton and Nottingham Forest.

 

The ECHO, though, understands the Anfield club will appeal the dismissal to the Football Association in the hope of getting the red card rescinded, as was the case with Alexis Mac Allister in August.

I’ve been doing my reading – Liverpool are right and Howard Webb has no choice

 

Well. Luis Diaz, VAR and PGMOL – that is the only way we can start this, really. It is just a disgrace, the whole story from top to bottom.

 

This PGMOL statement, I’m having none of it. Their silence when it happened spoke louder than words – they knew they were in the wrong.

 

It is so laughable, it is ridiculous. And that’s the best they could come up with? It is not on at all. Sorting it right there and then was as easy as getting in Simon Hooper’s ear, telling him to stop play, calling it back and awarding Diaz’s goal.

 

The on-field officials aren’t totally exempt from criticism either. Normally the flag goes up later on, he was so quick on the draw he’s quicker than John Wayne in the old westerns. He had his flag up so quickly.

 

I’ve been doing my reading since. The club themselves are right – sporting integrity has been compromised. At the end of the day relieving the referees of duty for one or two games isn’t enough, it could cost Liverpool the title.
