Liverpool topple Tottenham, Man United’s penalty problems and ‘lenient’ VAR

Liverpool beat Spurs 2-1 at Anfield and VAR grants four penalties in the Premier League

Emma Saunders is joined by former Aston Villa midfielder Lee Hendrie, former Tottenham defender Stephen Kelly and Ben Haines from 90min.

They reflect on Liverpool’s comeback to beat Tottenham 2-1 at Anfield in the Premier League.

The panel discuss Liverpool’s ability to grind out results to maintain their six point lead at the top of the table and whether Serge Aurier has become a liability for Spurs.

VAR strikes yet again as we saw four penalties awarded this weekend alone by it – the team debate whether it’s now gone too lenient?

As Arsenal let a 2-0 lead slip against Crystal Palace in their 2-2 draw at the Emirates, Xhaka had an interesting response to being booed off the pitch when he was substituted.

The panel debate whether Manchester United’s penalty problems have re-emerged after VAR granted them two – which Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial both saw saved by Tim Krul – in their 3-1 win at Norwich.

And there’s a full round-up of all the weekend’s Premier League matches.
