Yeah it's definitely tricky... To me the action of the slide is the movement to block the path, even it was for the previous action, I think that action and DLC running into him are close enough together in time to warrant the penalty.
That's because it wouldn't be of any consequence. If it was blown for anywhere else on the pitch I'd go "that wasn't a foul", chuckle and then forget about it.

He didn't say anything note worthy...
He seemed to say Hendo's injury "is only a small one, unfortunately".He didn't say anything note worthy...
But he wasn't even moving towards him was he? He was just sat there as Calvert Lewin ran into the back of him.
He was slightly lifting his head but I don't think that actually matters... The previous action of him sliding in has carried over to impact DCL.
Why are you adding intentionally?
Serves Klopp right for being a smart arse and trying to influences referees for our games.
Klopp pointed out how few pens there were in Liverpool games, so its good they are trying to correct the problem.
VAR review was to over turn penalty... stopped a clear goal sliding in tripping attacker, intent doesn't matter, should be a red too, ffs
He was still sliding when contact was made.

Yep. He unfortunately didn't stress they had to be in Liverpool's favour. Slipped up there.
He wasn't standing though he was laying on the ground, as a result of a missed block....which is why I don't think there was a red card because that slide was a genuine attempt to play the ball.
Shows it perfectly! And also why it isn't a red.
Exactly. This is why I'm not sure that's a pen. If it is then every corner is a pen as the defenders are stopping
I just don’t see how he can be trying to stop a shot at goal 1 second, then slide on a wet pitch and a second later the striker runs into the back of his head. How can that be a foul by the defender? He literally cannot get out of the way even if he wants to. If he tripped him with a Leg/arm as he tried to get the ball then fair enough, but DCL runs into him. If he was on his feet and he ran into him it would never be a foul.
My point is that most players don't intend to slide into the player who they foul. The fact they do is why it's a foul.He doesn’t slide into him though does he!!! DCL runs into him that’s the whole point.
But Trent wasnt laying on the ground?
He only runs into him because he’s literally right in front of him, sliding across him and blocking him from the tap in. DCL couldn’t avoid him to get to the ball.He doesn’t slide into him though does he!!! DCL runs into him that’s the whole point.
But that would be the defender sliding into the attacker to create contact, this is the completely opposite situation.
And what’s the issue with that? He’s allowed to be anywhere on the pitch. Sliding In front of somebody isn’t illegal.
And you’re getting muddled thinking intent is relevant.
Admittedly it was more of a block than a slide but TAA's still stopping him from getting to a loose ball, which in this case would have been a clear 1v1.
Intent has nothing to do with it when he didn’t even make the foul? He could have happily ran around him but chose to try and jump over and fecked it up.
What do you mean what’s the issue with that? He literally made a challenge to block the ball and the follow through led to tripping over the striker. Intent isn’t relevant.
How does he stop him getting to the ball? He could easily run around him or even jump over him properly. Instead he creates the contact by choosing to go over him instead of around.
That's irrelevant though
Look how fast it all happened, what do you mean he could have ran around.
How did he trip him up?
Please think about this for a momentHow does he stop him getting to the ball? He could easily run around him or even jump over him properly. Instead he creates the contact by choosing to go over him instead of around.
his own knee smacking into trents head is what causes him to go over ffs
