Tottenham’s recent update about their Women’s Super League Fixture against Liverpool led to some Spurs fans thinking Jurgen Klopp had got his wish of a replay.
Klopp shocked the footballing world by suggesting on Wednesday that replaying the fixture between Spurs and Liverpool would be the fairest outcome after a miscommunication between VAR and the on-field referee leading to Luis Diaz’s goal being ruled out for offside (Guardian).
Klopp has received plenty of criticism for his statement (Mirror) and multiple sources have made it clear that the Premier League will not consider replaying the game despite Liverpool’s attempts to escalate the incident (Football Insider).
Tottenham vs Liverpool will not be replayed
However, some Spurs fans feared the worst when a notification from the club’s app read on Thursday: ‘Our home league clash with Liverpool has been rescheduled.’
The Daily Mail revealed that this led to some Tottenham supporters thinking that the game was indeed about to be replayed, with one supporter commenting ‘I fell off my chair’, while another tweeted ‘heart was in my mouth’ and another ‘that gave me a mild heart attack.’
However, the alert actually referred to a new date for the Women’s Super League fixture between the same two clubs, with the Spurs vs Liverpool WSL game at Leyton Orient’s Brisbane Road on November 12 set to kick off at 12.30 pm.

Spurs Web Opinion
There is no doubt that the Tottenham admins knew exactly what they were doing by putting out that notification. In a way, it is quite a nice way to troll Klopp and Liverpool, although it seems like they nearly gave some Spurs fans a heart attack in the process.
