![Liverpool vs Arsenal: Gakpo Penalty Appeal Denied 😡 [Liverpool vs Arsenal produced a major penalty debate at Anfield on 1 November 2026, when Cody Gakpo went down inside the Arsenal penalty area after contact with Christos Tzolis in the 29th minute. Liverpool wanted a spot-kick, but referee Andy Madley allowed play to continue and VAR checked the incident without overturning the decision. My view is that Tzolis held Gakpo and restricted his movement as he chased the loose ball. Under IFAB Law 12, holding an opponent is a direct-free-kick offence when the contact impedes movement. When that offence happens inside the defender’s penalty area, it can mean a penalty. The key point is whether Tzolis’s grip actually stopped Gakpo’s run, especially with another defender already in front of the ball. Former Premier League referee Mark Halsey later said the Tzolis contact was not enough for a penalty, while judging the earlier Jurrien Timber shirt pull on Alexander Isak as a clear penalty. Those are two separate incidents and should not be confused. This video explains why I believe Liverpool should have received a penalty for the Gakpo incident, what the rule says, and why the VAR decision remains debatable. Arsenal eventually won 1-0 through Kai Havertz’s 16th-minute goal.] Cody Gakpo, Christos Tzolis, Liverpool FC, Arsenal FC, Liverpool vs Arsenal, Liverpool Arsenal 2026, Premier League 2026 27, Premier League Matchday 9, Gakpo penalty appeal, Tzolis holding Gakpo, Liverpool denied penalty, Liverpool penalty controversy, Andy Madley referee, VAR penalty decision, Law 12 holding offence, football refereeing, Andoni Iraola, Alexander Isak penalty appeal, Jurrien Timber shirt pull, Arsenal 1-0 Liverpool #CodyGakpo #LiverpoolFC #ArsenalFC #PremierLeague Was Tzolis's Contact Enough to Deny Gakpo a Penalty?
