Webb backs officials over disallowed Liverpool goal

Van Dijk thought he had equalised for Liverpool in the 38th minute, but referee Chris Kavanagh and his assistant Stuart Burt decided Andrew Robertson had committed an offside offence by ducking under the flight of the ball, which had impacted goalkeeper Gianluiga Donnarumma. The Video Assistant Referee, Michael Oliver, checked the incident and supported the on-field call, with Manchester City going on to win the game 3-0. On Monday, Liverpool contacted Professional Game Match Officials (PGMO) - the body that oversees refereeing in English professional football - to raise their concerns, as they believe the relevant criteria for the offence were not met and the goal should have been allowed.
