Football

Arne Slot voiced his frustration with officiating decisions following Liverpool's 3-2 defeat against Manchester United at Old Trafford.

Liverpool manager Arne Slot expressed anger regarding VAR decisions during his side's 3-2 loss to Manchester United on Sunday. Slot specifically questioned the decision to allow United's second goal to stand despite a contentious build-up, according to Sky Sports. The defeat at Old Trafford leaves Liverpool trailing in the title race as the Premier League season nears its conclusion.

While Slot criticised the technology, he also identified defensive lapses and missed opportunities as key factors in the result. United took advantage of Liverpool's errors to secure the three points. Per The Guardian, the visitors struggled to maintain control in midfield during the second half.

Mohamed Salah and Luis Diaz provided the goals for the Merseysiders, but these were not enough to overcome the hosts. Manchester United move closer to the European qualification spots following the victory. Liverpool now turn their focus to their remaining fixtures to secure their league position, per the Premier League.
