Case #1: Kuyt's goal, Liverpool v Sunderland (2010/2011)


Liverpool v Sunderland 25th September 2010 Premier League match at Anfield. Dirk Kuyt scored a bizarre goal after being fed by striker Fernando Torres. It was in the 5th minutes of the game when Sunderland won a free kick inside their own half. Michael Turner standing at the place where the free kick should be taken, then roll the ball back with intention to let his goalkeeper to take the free kick while referee Stuart Attwell was facing the Liverpool goal. Torres seizing the opportunity, rush to the loose ball before carrying it unchallenged and squaring it to Kuyt for an easy tap in.

Quick thinking or purely unsportmanship by the Fernando Torres. The goal was given and the Premier League quick to back the referee saying the goal was good and rightly given.


Goal or no goal. You be the judge
