Wolves make fun of Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp over VAR offside issue

Stephen Oladehinde 13:49 - 05.10.2023

In light of Jurgen Klopp's request for a rematch of Liverpool's match against Tottenham due to the "unprecedented" VAR offside dispute, Wolves have humorously made fun of Klopp.

During the Premier League game last Saturday, VAR Darren England made a mistake, disallowing a perfectly legitimate goal by Luis Diaz.

The disallowed goal has led to Jurgen Klopp calling for a rematch against Tottenham after PGMOL apologised for the human error.

This has led to Wolves sharing a post on social media mocking the German tactician for calling for a rematch.

Wolves troll Klopp on TikTok

Jurgen Klopp has been made fun of by Wolves on TikTok after asking for a rematch against Tottenham according to reports from Daily Mail.

Klopp said in a statement on Wednesday, “Yes, it was a mistake, an obvious mistake and I think there would have been solutions for it afterwards.

“And I can say immediately, even though probably some people don't want me to say, but not as the manager of Liverpool so much, more as a football person, I think the outcome should be a replay.

“That's how it is, probably will not happen. I think the situation is unprecedented, that it didn't happen before at that moment.”

However, Wolves quickly noted on their official TikTok account that the Liverpool manager may have a short memory.

They posted a video of Klopp saying it was an obvious mistake, something like this as far as I remember, never happened and added a caption which says, "Hang on a minute… 🤔 #Wolves #PremierLeague #Liverpool #VAR."

Back in January, during Wolves' FA Cup third-round match at Anfield, Toti appeared to score a perfectly legitimate goal that was disallowed.

The defender had scored a winning goal for Wolves but the lines man raised his flag for offside against Matheus Nunes who took the corner and then saw the ball rebound to him before making a cross.

The officials upheld the initial on-field offside judgement and the score remained 2-2 because the VAR was unable to access a video angle that would have provided sufficient evidence to reverse the call.
