Crystal Palace defender Christa Richards has expressed his frustration after a controversial handball decision involving Liverpool forward Mosala in the recent Premier League clash.
A moment at a critical stage in the game rekindled discussions about VAR and the consistency of umpire on top flights in England.
The incident occurred when Sarah appeared to be handling the ball while Liverpool had accumulated goals.
Ismaila Sar scored the opening goal for the Palace at Selhurst Park, but Liverpool fought back to level the score in the second half through Federico Chiesa.
Sarah appeared to have touched the ball, but Val did not consider it illegal and granted Liverpool a goal.
That ultimately meant nothing as Eddie Nketia scored against the side of Arne Slot in the 97th minute and handed them the first loss of the season.

He also used the hashtag #Justice to highlight the fact that they deserve to win the match.
