'It is embarrassing': Fulham boss Silva blasts penalty call in Liverpool defeat

Liverpool defeated Fulham 1-0 thanks to a penalty goal from Mohamed Salah.

The visitors' head coach, however, claims that Issa Diop did not foul Darwin Nunez in the episode leading to it.

"That penalty, when you lose a game in football to that penalty, is embarrassing, I have to say," Marco Silva told BBC Match Of The Day.

"When you have the referee then the VAR to help the referee, it is embarrassing.

"I didn't speak with the referee," Silva added. "I think my players and everyone that is honest will say the same.

"I will listen over the next few days if it is a harsh decision but for me it is clearly not a penalty. The player is already in the air.
