Former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand agreed with the final decision and said Hughes was too aggressive in his bid to regain possession for the team.”It took a while, but in the end it was the right result,” he told TNT Sports. “Free kicks, aggressive. Roy Hodgson wanted it, Will Hughes was aggressive but missed the goal line.
After seeing and judging, it was the right decision. “They (Palace) had the best chances so far and had the best opportunity. Alisson defended great. “Liverpool need to have more potential to create chances, but at the moment Palace will be the lucky team,” he said.
However, some Palace supporters were unhappy with the decision to disallow a 12-yard shot.One spectator responded on Twitter: “Van Dijk doesn’t get a yellow card, Endo doesn’t get a penalty for catching the ball before the ref makes a mistake and we don’t get a penalty either.” “Imagine how embarrassed I would be if the decision went in Liverpool’s favour.”Referee Bobby Madeley assessed the incident via a pitch monitor and the VAR review took more than three minutes. Wataru Endo was adjudged to have made a mistake in the penalty shoot-out.Another added: “But VAR thinks the ref missed the previous foul so no penalty. Personally, I think it’s a painful thing for Pallas.A third Palace supporter said the decision was harsh: “VAR finding fouls leading to goals/penalties is ridiculous. Let the on-field referee decide.”Peter Crouch believed it was the right call, but VAR tried to influence Madley to ask for Palace’s penalty to be waived. “He (Madeley) didn’t think it was a foul.
I think the VAR convinced him it was a foul.” “In the end, I think we made the right decision.”Everything is locked!It’s All Kicking Off is an exciting new podcast from Mail Sport that takes a different look at Premier League football.
