In a controversial Merseyside derby, Everton's James Tarkowski avoided a red card despite a dangerous challenge on Liverpool's Alexis Mac Allister. The tackle left Mac Allister writhing in pain but only resulted in a yellow card, sparking debate among pundits, former players, and fans regarding the decision's fairness. Liverpool, however, edged closer to the Premier League title with Diogo Jota's winning goal, which faced its own offside controversy. The VAR's decision-making process and the application of the laws of the game were questioned, with ex-England goalkeeper Joe Hart stating that Tarkowski's challenge was reckless and had the potential to be a leg-breaker.
