Aston Villa v Liverpool: VAR Officials deliberately made wrong decision says Chris Kamara

Liverpool controversially had a goal disallowed for offside against Aston Villa on Saturday

The Reds were a goal behind until the 36min of the game where Roberto Firmino converted a cross from Sadio Mane to level up for the visitors. The goal however was disallowed after the Brazilian was flagged offside.

The decision to curb the goal was contemplated, with VAR  controversially concluding it was offside.

Several pundits have criticized the decision, arguably it was manipulated according to former Villa player Andy Gray.

And now Chris Karmara has made his feelings clear admitting it was a clear wrong decision - something he thinks was done on purpose.

"I'm not happy with it, I'll be 100 per cent honest with you,” Kamara said.

"In my opinion this is made up, this has been made up by somebody at Stockley Park who's decided they don't want this to be a goal, and that is my opinion, and that is my honest opinion.

"From the naked eye you don't need that calibration of dots or whatever to tell you, look at Tyrone Mings' knee, Firmino is onside, right.

"So you look at the yellow line and there's a black line there as well. So they've done that there - that tells you that he was onside.

"So they change it round now to make it that Firmino is the [ Red line ] and Tyrone Mings is the [ Blue line ] line, as you can see now."

"But the [ Red dotted ] line that comes up towards Firmino isn't straight - that's not a straight line, that’s an angled line.

"I put a piece of paper to it this morning haven’t I and I showed you - that is not a straight line. Get your rulers out, get your spirit level out. That red line is not a straight line."
