From the source
Liverpool were left to rue a lack of creativity against Arsenal on Sunday after failing to record a single shot on target.
The Reds could certainly have done more to make the Gunners suffer in their own box having put them under pressure throughout much of the game, but for all of their shortcomings, they will still point to a refereeing decision as being the key turning point in the match.
Alexander Isak should have had a penalty after being pulled back by Jurrien Timber as he went up for a header. The decision was about as clear as they come, with pundits across the board in agreement that Liverpool had been cruelly denied an obvious spot-kick.
