We are affected again, the foul on Doak that could have been awarded a penalty against Leicester

Liverpool had a difficult first half in the Carabao Cup against Leicester at Anfield as they went behind after just three minutes when the visitors took advantage of a mistake by Greek striker Kostas Tsimikas to allow their striker Mc Ateer to score the first goal of the game, this time defended by Irishman Caohim Kelleher.

After this goal Liverpool fell asleep from the position of the ball and began to generate moves forward but without much clarity and above all without showing the necessary forcefulness to achieve the tie, something that annoyed the German coach Jürgen Klopp on several occasions, who was captured by the television broadcast very upset by different plays.

But the play that most annoyed the German was the one that occurred with the Scottish Messi Ben Doak, who was brought down inside the box by a reckless sweep by a defender of the foxes although the referee Tim Robinson did not mark a foul and it should be noted that in this caravaocup is not the VAR video system so it could not be reviewed even though it was a very clear foul against our striker.

<strong>It was a penalty</strong>

Several journalists took to social media to point out that from the perspective at Anfield it looked like a clear penalty against Doak. One of them was James Pierce who writes for The Athletic and had a commentary pointing out that the penalty should have been scored in a clear affectation again against Liverpool.
