Liverpool manager Arne Slot reacts after a controversial VAR decision ruled out a crucial goal during a tense European clash against Galatasaray. Slot admitted his team started the match strongly and created several big chances, including a near-open goal for Florian Wirtz, but failed to convert their opportunities.
The Dutch manager questioned the consistency of refereeing decisions throughout the game, particularly the VAR call that disallowed Liverpool’s goal and several fouls around Virgil van Dijk during set pieces. Slot also praised Galatasaray’s defensive effort and their ability to punish mistakes in key moments.
Despite the frustrating 1–0 defeat away from home, Slot remains confident ahead of the second leg at Anfield, believing Liverpool can turn the tie around with the support of their fans and a stronger finishing performance.
