Liverpool: New tunnel footage reveals Virgil van Dijk response as PSG fume over Ibrahima Konate decision | OneFootball

Reds captain fires back as Paris Saint-Germain sporting director Luis Campos angrily complains at lack of red card or penalty

Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk appeared to witheringly dismiss Paris Saint-Germain sporting director Luis Campos’ frustrated complaints in new tunnel footage circulating from the Parc des Princes.

Italian referee Davide Massa did not award a foul and the decision was upheld after a lengthy check for a potential red card by VAR Aleandro Di Paolo and his assistant Daniele Chiffi, with play on signalled.

It was a decision that incensed PSG, with reports on Wednesday night of frustrated sporting director Campos protesting in the tunnel after the half-time whistle and insisting that it had to be either a red card or a penalty.

Footage of said incident has now emerged on social media after being caught by the cameras of French broadcasters Canal+, with an increasingly animated Campos heard repeatedly saying, louder each time: “It’s a red card or a penalty, in every part of the world.”

The video also captures the dismissive response of Reds skipper Van Dijk, who can be heard saying: “Come on bro, it’s not Ligue 1 brother. Eh, it’s not Ligue 1 here bro.”

Former England and Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand felt PSG had been hard done by in his role as a pundit on TNT Sports’ coverage of the match, stating: “I can’t believe how lucky Liverpool are here. How has VAR not picked it up? He is barging between the shoulder blades on his back.”
