The Referee Was Desperate To Give Liverpool A Penalty - Kasper Schmeichel

Leicester City goalkeeper, Kasper Schmeichel has accused referee Michael Oliver of trying to be a hero in their recent heavy loss vs Liverpool. Liverpool scored 4 unreplied goals at the King Power Stadium through a Roberto Firmino brace, alongside a James Milner penalty and a Trent Alexander-Arnold strike to wrap up a remarkable win. However, according to Kasper, the penalty-kick awarded to Liverpool was not deserved and the ref was only desperate to give it. He added that the decision which resulted in a goal made Leicester lose their composure. His words, "I think [the decision] was a bit tough," "We were in the game until the referee had to make himself a hero. Then we lost our composure. "[Former Premier League referee and current pundit] Dermot [Gallagher] will be on Sky saying it was a great decision. "Caglar had less than a millisecond to react. He is desperate to give it, once he does they are never going to turn it over." On Liverpool, “They are the best side in the world along with Manchester City,” "We strive to be like Manchester City and Liverpool but they are a lot further along in their journey.” "They are a top side. It's theirs to lose isn't it?"
