Liverpool new player Adrian’s penalty gave Jurgen Klopp’s men a 5-4 shootout win against Chelsea.
Sadio Man’e equalizer took the game to extra-time but the Senegalese forward scored again after 100 minute. Then Adrian was penalized for taking down Abraham in the area which gifted Jorginho to take the game to penalties.
The decision was reviewed by VAR but there was deemed no ‘clear and obvious error’ so the goal stood.
UEFA ruling states that: ‘The goalkeeper must have at least part of one foot on/in line with the goal line when the kick is taken; cannot stand behind the line’.
However, Chelsea fans were fuming on social media over the decision.
