Gerrard: It's hard to explain the judge's decision

Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard said he was stunned by the judge's decision in the Merseyside derby against Everton. The match at "Goodison Park" end in a draw 2:2, and in 94th minutes, the side referee cancel a regular goal of Suarez, thereby depriving the "reds" of the three points.

"I looked over Suarez goals and we can only regret, because it was a clean goal. We had to win three points, not just one. There is no offside and I can hardly explain the situation. The only person who can explain this is probably the side judge. I asked him after the game if there was an ambush, and he replied: "I ​​think so." This is not enough. If all decisions in the Premier League are based on "I think so," then we have a serious problem, "said the captain of Liverpool.

"The assistant referee took absolutely wrong decision. If there is any doubt, the decision should be in favor of the attacking player. Before the second goal there was touch for us. The side referee it ruled in our favor, but Andre Marriner decided otherwise. He gave it in favor of Everton and their second goal came just after this situation, "said Gerrard.
