Liverpool manager Arne Slot expressed his disappointment with the VAR decision to overturn a penalty in their Champions League match against Paris Saint-Germain. Slot believes that his team has been unfairly treated by referees this season, citing several instances where decisions have gone against them.
The Reds were eliminated from the Champions League after a 2-0 defeat to PSG, with Ousmane Dembele scoring two late goals. Slot's comments came after the match, where he stated that he was not surprised by the VAR decision, given the number of times his team has been on the receiving end of unfavorable calls.
Liverpool defender Ibrahima Konate also shared his thoughts, saying that he believed it was a clear penalty and that the outcome of the game would have been different if they had been awarded the spot kick. The loss has put pressure on Slot to secure a top-five finish in the Premier League to ensure Champions League football next season.
Despite the challenges, Slot remains optimistic about the team's future, highlighting the club's successful model of selling players to sign new talent.
