Manchester City defender Cheap Kyle Walker Football Shirts has praised the “character” of referee Michael Oliver for not giving Liverpool a late penalty in Sunday’s 1-1 draw.
City winger Jérémy Doku kicked Cheap Alexis Mac Allister Women’s Football Shirts chest when clearing the ball in the 99th minute of the match, but neither the match officials nor VAR awarded a penalty, prompting Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp to say that “it was 100% a penalty” and to question what video official Stuart Attwell “ate for lunch”.

“I feel that the judge judged it really, really well.
“I feel that with Anfield and the crowd behind him, he could have crumbled. But it shows his experience, it shows his character and that’s why he’s probably regarded as one of the best referees in this country and in the world at the moment.”
Walker went on to discuss the Premier League title race, where City are third, just a point behind Liverpool and leaders Arsenal.
“I don’t think anyone has an advantage. We are where we are,” he said. “We have difficult games, like everyone else, we all have difficult games.
“I said to the boys in the dressing room [before playing Liverpool] that this game doesn’t define our season – it’s a big step in the right direction towards the end of the season, but it doesn’t define our season.
“We know the Premier League, we’ve been here for many, many years and we’ve seen a lot of twists and turns, ups and downs.
“So there’s a lot of football to play, as you said, there are 10 big important games to play, and hopefully Cheap Manchester City Kids Football Shirts we’re going to go out and do the big four in a row that no one has ever done.”
