Chris Kavanagh, who refereed the #LFC v #MCFC game, was born in the Greater Manchester area. His brother reportedly holds a season ticket for Manchester City. We hope this isn’t true…
🚨JUST IN: Chris Kavanagh’s (today’s referee) history of INCORRECT decisions:
2022: Rodri handball vs Everton: no penalty awarded. PGMOL later apologized to Everton.
2023: Ødegaard handball vs Liverpool: no penalty awarded for Liverpool. PGMOL later admitted it was an error.
2025: Van Dijk's goal vs. Man City - disallowed. An independent panel ruled it should have stood.
