Liverpool manager Arne Slot says VAR decisions have worked against his team all season, after a 3-2 defeat to Manchester United where a Benjamin Sesko goal that should have been ruled out stood.
Slot's frustration boiled over after the match. He pointed to the Sesko goal as the turning point, insisting that if the striker had touched the ball with his hand, VAR should have caught it. Instead, the goal stood and changed the course of the game.
This is not the first time Slot has complained about VAR this season. The Dutch manager has made it clear that he believes the technology has repeatedly made decisions that hurt Liverpool's chances. He did not name specific incidents beyond the Sesko moment, but his tone made clear he sees a pattern.
Manchester United's win moves them closer to Liverpool in the table, adding another layer to Slot's disappointment. The defeat stings because Liverpool came close but could not finish the job, and Slot sees the VAR decision as the moment everything changed.
Liverpool will have a chance to bounce back in their next match. Whether Slot's complaints about VAR treatment will change anything remains unclear, but his comments will fuel debate among fans and pundits about how the technology is being used in the Premier League.
