Referee Sam Barrott awarded a foul and promptly issued a yellow card to Tarkowski. VAR reviewed the incident but swiftly determined it did not warrant a red card.
“The referee’s call of yellow card for a reckless foul by Tarkowski was checked by the VAR, with contact on the follow through after Tarkowski had played the ball deemed to be reckless,” Premier League wrote in a statement on X.
While the victory strengthened Liverpool's league title hopes, Everton's defeat left them in 15th place, with 34 points from 30 league matches.
