SportFootballLiverpool FCArne Slot and Liverpool's players were left fuming when referee Andy Madley allowed Daniel Munoz’s goal for Crystal Palace at Anfield to standFormer Premier League referee Mike Dean believes Andy Madley made the correct call by allowing Daniel Munoz’s goal against Liverpool to stand. Liverpool’s players and Arne Slot were left fuming by Madley’s call to allow the goal to stand, but Dean believes he made the right decision.“It can't not be a goal,” he said on Sky’s Gillette Soccer Special.



"There's nothing else you can do... even though Woodman's injured, he gets back up to try and stop the ball anyway and goes back down. It didn't punish us in the end and the three points are massive."While team-mate Robertson said: "I was closest to him and I don't think he looked up before he hit the ball.“In a game like this, you just hope it doesn't punish you.

It's one of these things, I don't think there's anyone to blame."On the goal, Palace boss Oliver Glasner said: "It was a difficult situation because he made a big save but the ball goes to Munoz. Everything goes so quickly."He could continue the game until the end and that's why we think it was the right decision.
