It wouldn’t be a Premier League weekend without a contentious VAR call, would it?
This time, it came with the tightest of penalty decisions going against Liverpool at Southampton.
There was no doubt Andy Robertson took down Saints youngster Tyler Dibling, but the question was whether it was inside or outside the box.
The referee thought it was inside and after several looks at it from several angles, VAR agreed, with the Liverpool defender’s foot on the line being the difference maker.
It really couldn’t be any closer, though.
Adam Armstrong saw his resulting spot kick saved byย Caoimhรญn Kelleher but was there to tap home the rebound.
Expect there to be just a little bit of chat around this in the coming days.
