Iniesta would have sympathy for Liverpool if denied Premier League title

Barcelona legend Andres Iniesta would have sympathy for Liverpool should they miss out on the Premier League title.

The World Cup winner is currently playing his football for Vissel Kobe in Japan and like everyone else, is waiting for the return of football due to the coronavirus suspension.

“I suppose there will be rules that decide [outcomes] one way or another in exceptional circumstances, but it's a difficult situation," he told The Guardian.

"It must be very hard [for teams like Liverpool, who may be denied a title]," Iniesta said, when asked about the Reds' title hopes.

“Or a second division team on the verge of being promoted, told this season is null and void, that it doesn't count.

"Or, the other way round: a team in the relegation zone is saved.

"Pfff. I don't know how you resolve it."
