Live on January 24, 2019 In the 23rd round of the Premier League, Crystal Palace lost 1-3 at home to Liverpool. In this game, jota created a penalty for Liverpool that was controversial.
After the game, Crystal Palace boss Vieira told the BBC: "We know what a great team Liverpool is and what we're going to face. In the first half, Liverpool performed much better and we had a very big problem. They were in full control of the pace of the game and it was hard for us to put pressure on them. ”
"In the second half, we let ourselves find our feelings again and put pressure on them in different ways. With their fitness down, we scored a goal to get ourselves back into the game. We had some good momentum and found the rhythm. ”
"Then there was the penalty and the referee's wrong decision had a huge impact on the game. You need to ask the manager why he did this and he can give his own explanation. I think Jota is really smart. ”
"Football is a sport about physical contact, and we've had meetings with referees who said football is about physical contact and physical contact is part of that sport. But they are now mistaken. I was really disappointed with such a decision. I watched the replay a couple of times and it was definitely not a penalty. ”
"With us scoring goals, we can go for something and try to get a draw. However, today's referee makes us feel that our efforts have lost their meaning. ”
"The referee made a huge mistake and we lost the opportunity to fight back, which of course would have a big impact on the game. Today, the referee didn't do a good job of blowing penalties at all, and some of these decisions can have a major impact on the game. When we're at home, that happens too much, especially against the top teams. ”
