Did anyone see the incident Tuchel is referring to here?

Gabriel picked up a goal kick after the Ref had blown the whistle.

According to Tuchel the Ref said it was a childish mistake and won't give such a penalty in the CL quarter final.

Anyone else notice that Klopp failed to shake Chris Kavanagh’s hand at the end but did shake the AR’s hands either side? Very petty.

Klopp’s patronising, sarcastic, smile every single time a decision or VAR referral goes against him, however correct the decision is, is really beginning to grate too.

According to Law5, Oliver and Taylor are in Cyprus for the UEFA Advanced Course for top referees (Elite and Cat1) which it says runs 28th Jan. to Thursday 1st Feb.  As Oliver has the 12.30 game at Everton on Saturday, it would be helpful if he can get back late Thursday I would have thought. If not, wouldn't it have been better to give him a Sunday game like Taylor?

Incidentally, Stuart Burt is not with Oliver but is AVAR, with Kav as VAR, on Sunday.

Pleased to see Bond, Bramall and Welch with games.
