Liverpool prevented a defeat after VAR failed to provide any evidence on an offside call for a goal that would have won Wolves the match.
Liverpool yet again conceded the first goal of a match in a football season where they are barely managing to keep their head above water. Goncalo Guedes would open the scoring for Wolves in the 26th minute, which would be equalled by Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez just before half time. Mohammed Salah would then give the Reds their lead for the first time. Hwang Hee-chan levelled the scores in the 66th minute. An unpleasant incident would occur late in the match when Toti Gomes sneaked in a goal only for the assistant referee to raise his flag for offside. Unfortunately for Wolves, VAR had no camera angle that would suggest overturning the decision. Both teams would settle for a 2-2 draw.
