Premier League rule could prompt Liverpool against Tottenham replay after VAR audio release

Tottenham defeated Liverpool 2-1 on Saturday night.

A top sports lawyer has revealed how the Premier League may be forced to replayTottenham Hotspur.l’s match against Tottenham Hotspur.

The Reds’ unblemished start to the Premier League season came to an end on Saturday evening, as they were defeated 2-1 by Ange Postecoglou’s side. Joel Matip scored an own goal in stoppage time after Son Heung-min and Cody Gakpo had scored.

However, the defeat only told half of the tale, as Liverpool were enraged after having a goal erroneously called out for offside within the first 45 minutes of the game, with the game still scoreless. The PGMOL confirmed shortly after the game that’a substantial human error occurred’ during the goal review.

The audio recordings of the match officials’ deliberations about Diaz’s disallowed goal were made public on Tuesday night, and Stephen Taylor Heath, co-head of sports law at JMW Solicitors, has indicated that a replay can be ordered. However, it is important noting that Liverpool have not requested that the game be replayed.

“Rule L18 outlines that the Premier League board has the power to order a league match to be replayed, provided that a recommendation to that effect has been made by a commission under rule W51,” Taylor Heath said to the Mirror.

“In addition, under rule W1, the Premier League’s board has the authority to investigate any suspected rule violation, including those committed by a match official, while rule N4 requires each match official to agree to be bound by the laws of the game as well as any protocols and FA rules.”

“As a result, Liverpool could lobby the Premier League board to convene a commission with the authority, among other things, to order the match to be replayed.”
