"I thought it was a penalty. I’ve been informed there might have been another couple as well. I thought their reaction to the challenge was quite telling," Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder told beIN SPORTS.
"The performance was good, it had to be to come here and get an opportunity to get a result and I thought we had opportunities to get a result.
"There is lots of disappointment in our dressing room. We got on the bus believing we could get a result and we get back on the bus disappointed we haven’t got that.
"To be involved in a tight game I think my assessment is not far off. They had more possession, more control but I didn’t think it was one-way traffic and that is the disappointing aspect from tonight.
"But we’re not feeling sorry for ourselves, there are no white flags going up. It is ruthless and cruel this division and it is hard one to take tonight."
Liverpool have beaten Sheffield United 2-1 at Anfield.
The Blades opened the scoring in the first half as Sander Berge converted from the spot after VAR official Andre Marriner granted the guests a very questionable penalty. Fabinho's challenge on Oli McBurnie was a hard one but it was most likely outside the box and it was hardly a foul.
Nonetheless, the Reds managed to come out on top, thanks to goals from Bobby Firmino and Diogo Jota.
