Liverpool fan starts petition to review goal-line technology after an incredible clearance from John Stones denied Liverpool the goal in the first half.
Liverpool suffered their first league this season defeat against Manchester City last night.
Manchester City opened the goalscoring in the 40th minute through Sergio Aguero. Liverpool equalized in the second half, but couldn’t secure a point as Leroy Sane scored the winner for Guardiola’s side.
The game, however, was marred with controversy surrounding goal-line technology. In the first half, Liverpool came close to scoring their first goal, but John Stones made a terrific clearance on goal-line.
The goal was eventually ruled out. And it didn’t go well with Liverpool fans.
Liverpool fan starts petition to review goal-line technology:
A Liverpool fan has filed a petition to review the accuracy of goal-line technology after the side was denied the goal in the first half against Manchester City.
The review showed that the ball was just 1.12cm away from being declared a goal for Liverpool.
The fan, who filed the petition under the name, ‘King Kenny,’ wrote “It’s not fair. We want justice.”
Twitter reacted to the petition:
Oh man. There’s a petition to review goal line technology due to yesterday’s no goal decision.
Liverpool fans are so salty.

Here’s how Twitter reacted to the Liverpool fans after the game.
Says a lot about Liverpool and their fans that despite Man City pretty much buying the league with morally corrupt owners being funded by an ethically corrupt country, most people would rather City win the league than them
