Football Insider have claimed that the Premier League will refuse any requests from Liverpool to have their clash against Tottenham Hotspur replayed.

The PMGOL released the audio from the incident earlier this week, with the tapes clearly demonstrating that the Luis Diaz offside call stood as a result of a miscommunication (Sky Sports).

The VAR Darren England thought that the goal had been given and communicated ‘check complete’ to the on-field referee, who restarted the game assuming that the offside decision had been verified.

Just when it looked like we might have heard last of the incident, Jurgen Klopp poured fuel into the fire on Wednesday by stating that a fair resolution would be to have the game replayed (Guardian).

Premier League will refuse a Spurs-Liverpool replay 

However, Football Insider have now claimed that there is no chance of the Premier League calling for the match to be replayed.

The outlet explained even though the Reds are looking to escalate the incident, the Premier League have made it clear that there is no prospect of playing the fixture again.

Meanwhile, Sky Sports Football Daily have revealed that they reached out to Tottenham regarding Klopp’s statement but the North London club did not offer any comment. 

Spurs Web Opinion

There is no point in dignifying Klopp’s statement with a response. Liverpool’s conduct has been extremely poor over the last few days.

From their assertion that ‘sporting integrity has been undermined’ to Klopp’s claim yesterday, it is almost as if they are hinting at corruption or foul play when it was evidently just human error.
