Jurgen Klopp celebrates with Fabinho after the win at Newcastle

However, it seems Jurgen Klopp’s men were fortunate to even be awarded a set-piece.Matt Ritchie appeared to make minimal contact with Fabinho before the Brazil international hit the deck.And Halsey was left dumbfounded by the decision to award the free-kick which allowed the Reds to score.The former ref told the Weekend Sports Breakfast: “I was watching it live and I didn’t even think it was a free kick in real time!“The assistant referee, Simon Long, is right there and I don’t know what he is looking at.2

“I don’t know what he has seen because there certainly wasn’t a foul by Matt Ritchie.“I think Fabinho knows what he is doing – he’s been clever – and he’s just thrown himself to the ground to win a free-kick.“Unfortunately, they scored the winner from it which was unjust on Newcastle.”
