The fallout from Liverpool’s 2-1 defeat to Manchester United has taken a dramatic turn, with Jamie Carragher calling for FIFA to investigate what he described as “one of the poorest officiated games this season.”
According to the Liverpool legend, referee Michael Oliver’s performance raised serious concerns, as several key decisions appeared to go against the Reds during the match. Carragher didn’t mince words, insisting that the officiating was “unacceptable at this level of football” and that Liverpool were effectively denied a fair result.
Many fans share his frustration, pointing to controversial moments — including missed fouls, questionable bookings, and a possible penalty incident — that shifted momentum in Manchester United’s favor.
Carragher went further to claim he has evidence supporting his stance, urging FIFA to open an immediate review of the game. His comments have reignited the ongoing debate about the use of VAR and referee accountability in major competitions.
For Liverpool supporters, the loss feels like more than just a setback — it’s a bitter reminder of how crucial officiating can be in shaping a club’s destiny. As pressure mounts on football’s governing bodies, all eyes now turn to whether FIFA will respond to the calls for an official investigation.
