Jurgen Klopp calls for replay after VAR mistake in Liverpool's Premier League defeat to Tottenham

Jurgen Klopp has said the "outcome should be a replay" after the VAR controversy in Tottenham's victory over his Liverpool side in the Premier League.

The Reds were reduced to 10 men with the scoreline goalless when forward Luis Diaz appeared to have given the visitors the lead, but saw the goal overturned for offside.

Refereeing body made in the moment, and in his immediate response to the controversy, which has continued to make headlines since the match ended.

Speaking in his latest media appearance ahead of Liverpool's match with Union Saint-Gilloise in the Europa League, Klopp said: "They didn't do it on purpose and we should not forget that. Yes, it was a mistake. An obvious mistake.

"I think there would have been solutions. I think the outcome should be a replay. Probably won't happen. As far as I can remember, something like that never happened, that's why I think a replay should be played.

"The audio didn't change it at all because I was not really interested in why things happen. I saw the outcome, I saw a goal, and I saw it didn't count. It's really important that we deal with it in a proper way."

After making the point that the officials did not make the mistake on purpose, Klopp continued to say that he was "not angry with any of them, not at all" with Spurs boss Ange Postecoglou having had a similar perspective after the match.

"I'm not angry with any of them, not at all," Klopp said. "We should not go for them. They made a mistake and I'm sure they felt horrible that night.

"What made this day really difficult... we talk about the process of VAR, but in this game there was another situation where Curtis [Jones] got a red card that I don't think was a red card. I think it was a clear and obvious error.

"The wording, clear and obvious, is not the right wording. These things should not happen. Other mistakes should not happen. Find a solution to deal with it. We rush them and we get a quick decision, but the wrong decision.

"The problems are obvious, but they are sortable. We should try to create a situation where these people can make the best decisions.

"We should try to create a situation where these people can make best decisions. It is a heated conversation and there is a solution for it. It's not because we are involved, a situation like this is a massive mistake. Correct it in that moment."

Ultimately, Klopp was proud of his "wonderful team" for the way they battled despite the adversity in the match against Tottenham, even though the result went against them.

"I saw a wonderful team fighting against all odds in an incredible, fair way. I don't know how we get eight cards altogether. We didn't get points, but all the rest we can use and that is what we will do."
