The Premier League have explained why Liverpool were denied a late winner against Arsenal.

Andy Robertson turned the ball into the net with virtually the last kick of the game.

The Liverpool left-back lashed home in the 96th minute after Arsenal goalkeeper David Raya had saved a header from Virgil van Dijk.

Referee Anthony Taylor immediately blew for a foul by Reds centre-back Ibrahima Konate on Arsenal full-back Myles Lewis-Skelly.

The decision went to the VAR and after a quick check the officials at Stockley Park agreed with Taylor's initial call.

The Premier League Match Centre then tweeted: "The referee’s call of no goal was checked and confirmed by VAR - with it deemed that Konate fouled Lewis-Skelly in the build-up."

The final whistle was blown moments later as the match between the Premier League's top two finished in a 2-2 draw at Anfield.
