Jurgen Klopp fumes at VAR decision to allow Leicester's first goal to stand as he admits it's a 'clear offside'... but ex-Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher labels Thiago 'a liability defensively' for giving away free-kick in the first place

Jurgen Klopp was left fuming by Leicester City's opener in their 3-1 win over Liverpool on Saturday after the goal came courtesy of much VAR controversy.

There was confusion among both teams in the eventual awarding of the Foxes' first goal.

The much-maligned video refereeing technology initially ruled in Liverpool and midfielder Thiago's favour when judging that his foul on Harvey Barnes was just outside the box and therefore not a penalty.

But James Maddison swung in the subsequent free-kick, which missed everyone as it curled past Alisson into the bottom left corner.
