But after Everton midfielder Abdoulaye Doucoure pulled down Forest captain Ryan Yates in the box, the outcome against the Toffees might have been different. But referee Paul Tierney decided against calling a penalty
Additionally, a former Premier League referee explained to Sky Sports why the Reds should have been awarded a spot kick for the incident. To compound the frustration of the home team, he also thinks Tierney had three chances to point to the location during the incident.
“I think it is a penalty for three reasons,” he stated. “To begin with, he shows no interest in the ball and never once glances at it.
In my opinion, he has been wearing his shirt for far too long. He ought to show him some compassion and then let him go. Furthermore, he trips him too, so I believe there is a penalty.”
The Reds’ loss on Saturday dropped them to 15th place in the Premier League standings. After 14 games, they are presently five points above the relegation zone.
