Serious compatibility concerns raised by Liverpool Football Club. Fans and players alike are reeling from a disallowed goal scored by Liverpool FC‘s Virgil van Dijk in their recent match against Manchester City. The game took place on Monday, 10 November 2025, commencing at 17:28 UK time, where Manchester City ultimately secured a 3-0 victory.
Liverpool representatives have taken particular issue with the specific circumstance of Van Dijk’s disallowed goal. We’re writing to PGMOL to ask how VAR came to this decision. This organization is responsible for overseeing match officials in the Premier League and will conduct a review of the circumstances surrounding the controversial decision.
Though Van Dijk did score in the game, his goal was disallowed. Liverpool felt that this decision was crucial to the outcome, affecting the jury’s sense of just how dangerous the action was. The club’s normally sensible officials wrote to PGMOL looking for some sort of explanation as to why they came to that decision. They shared their frustrations about the enforcement of these rules and the effect these types of calls can have on the game.
Despite Liverpool’s efforts to contest the disallowed goal, they could not alter the match’s final score as Manchester City maintained their dominant performance. Though the match ended with a comfortable three-goal advantage for City, it was a tough day at the office for Liverpool.
In a welcome move, PGMOL has begun its own review of the incident. Here’s what we’ll be looking at specifically, including following officiating protocol, identification of errors made during the match, etc. The result of this review could set the tone for how we move forward from future matches and how these situations should be addressed.
