In the fierce battle between Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool, Premier League referee Simon Harper made a major mistake, not only incorrectly ruled that a reasonable Liverpool goal was invalid, but also incorrectly expelled two Liverpool players from the red card. Although the refereeing committee recognized Harper's mistake after the match, he was still tasked with VAR refereeing in the next round of the league.
Liverpool were unlucky to be shown a red card for Gudis Jones earlier in the game, which was controversial in itself, and then Luis Diaz, who scored a goal despite being a man short, was ruled offside and misjudged. The referee's committee issued a statement recognizing the misjudgment against Diaz.
Nevertheless, the controversial referee Harper did not "get boxed in", he will continue to enforce the law in the next round of the Premier League, this time it is the match between Ewarton and Ponmouth, he will be responsible for the VAR referee work. Fans will be able to witness the direction of the game. Two staff members of the VAR refereeing team have been suspended for this error.
