Ben Doak was given his first Anfield start against Leicester City in the cup, and while he was very active in the game, it seemed unfair that his performance wasn’t rewarded with a penalty.
James Justin looked to have knocked the young Scot off his feet as he drove into the opposing box during the game, and replays from new angles have only supported this claim.
The 17-year-old’s standing foot appeared to be swept out from under him, and it’s incredible that the Reds weren’t given a penalty, but without VAR, there was no chance for a second look.
The former Celtic player will have many more chances to win over our followers, and it appears that his first goal at the senior level is not far off.
