Dont get me wrong that was an objectively crummy team performance and may well still have ended up on the losing side, but corrupt decisions (stitch-ups) pertaining to fouls in the box like that (including glaring fouls in the build-up to Liverpool goal) swing momentum.
Changes the complexion of the match. Ruins the course of the match and kills the game as a contest.
Weren't given the chance to see how correctly awarded penalties at 0-0 + 3-1 and disallowed second goal would have played-out.
Van Dijk twice the aggressor got away with murder, cast iron penalties and ! Anywhere else on the pitch those are given as fouls.
Tremendous advert for corruption!

"But no, I don’t see as many United fans behaving like this as I do with Liverpool fans."
You never see United fans going on about ref/VAR bias for Liverpool or taking PEDs, OK Arsene Winston.
Most United fans on here can't discuss Liverpool without using words like filth, vermin and bin dippers.

It’s funny how you post what I said, then you post a totally different comment that bears no relation to what I said, and then you moan about it.
You really are an idiot.

Of all the things to be thankful for, not being born you is right at the top of the list.

Imagine embarking on a campaign against a common fallacy while perpetrating a different common fallacy.

You were well beaten tbf, better all over the park
But you defo should have had 2 pens, no question
----------------------------------------------------------------------
How well a team plays has no bearing on whether or not a penalty should be awarded. A penalty is a foul committed in the box and yesterday we had two of those, clear as day.
The most worrying thing for me is that VAR looked closely at both incidents and they didn't do their job properly. So either they are totally inept or there is corruption.
Either way it's not good enough and if people want to sweep this under the carpet then it says everything about their integrity and character, or lack thereof.

Both were soft contacts, easy to overthink & default to non penalty in the box & free kick outside it.
Showed how savvy Van Dijk is tbh, little needling fouls that even with tec could make you question 'but was it enough contact?'

They were definite and clear fouls in the box. There's no excuse whatsoever for VAR to look at both incidents closely and not even give one pen from both incidents.
