Arne Slot points finger at referee over controversial Munoz goal

Slot added that he couldn’t fault Munoz for taking his opportunity on goal, but thinks Madley should have blown the whistle when Woodman went down.

“The number of times I’ve played against a team and then a player is on the floor and the referee blows the whistle. It happened against Manchester United when (Alexis) Mac Allister was on the floor, they played on and Macca needed five stitches afterwards. I don’t blame them, by the way, the referee should stop the game.

“It’s going to become a tactic to pretend you’re injured so the referee stops the play. He did it about four times today. Munoz, I think it’s 50-50 because some players wouldn’t have taken the shot. Some players would stop and some would score. I don’t blame him as much as I blame the referee.

The result sees Liverpool move into fourth place in the Premier League table, but it came at a cost as Mo Salah was forced off with an injury.

“Another win and another injury,” Slot said. “It’s the story of our season. It’s too early to say but we all know Mo and how hard it is for him to leave the pitch. For Mo to leave the pitch, it shows you something but we have to wait and see how bad it is.”
