Premier League Referee To Miss Weekend Games After Error In Liverpool vs Nottingham Clash
Paul Tierney, who made a mistake in Liverpool’s win at Nottingham Forest, will not referee a game in the next round of Premier League matches.
However, he will be the video assistant referee (VAR) for Arsenal’s home game with Brentford on Saturday.
Tierney stopped play for a head injury to Reds defender Ibrahima Konate when Forest had possession in added time.
He restarted play by giving Liverpool goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher the ball and Darwin Nunez scored moments later.
The goal gave the visitors a 1-0 victory and came in the 99th minute – one minute and 50 seconds after the restart incident.
International Football Association Board rules state the game should have restarted with Forest possession from where they had the ball outside the box.
