Liverpool launch complaint to referees' chiefs over Virgil van Dijk's 'duck' disallowed goal against Man City - and say decision was AGAINST the laws of the game

Liverpool have complained to referees' chiefs about Virgil van Dijk's disallowed goal at Manchester City on Sunday.

The Premier League champions were well beaten and Arne Slot did not blame the decision for his side's defeat. But he was left wondering what might have been if his captain's header, which would have made the game 1-1, was allowed to stand.

Instead it was chalked off after a VAR review due to Andrew Robertson, the Liverpool left back, being on the line and judged to be interfering with City goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma.
