BREAKING NEWS: FIFA Drops VERY SAD NEWS for Referee Samuel Barrott & VAR Officials After Liverpool vs Everton Controversy!
Live from Sky Sports, FIFA has officially announced a shocking decision regarding referee Samuel Barrott and the VAR officials from the controversial Liverpool vs Everton match. Following their failure to send off James Tarkowski for what many have called a “leg-breaking” challenge on Alexis Mac Allister, FIFA has now taken drastic action—they have all lost their jobs!
The decision comes after immense backlash from Liverpool fans, pundits, and football experts, who slammed the officiating in the Merseyside Derby. Many believed Tarkowski’s reckless tackle should have resulted in a straight red card, but to everyone’s disbelief, Barrott and the VAR team allowed him to stay on the pitch. The challenge left Mac Allister in serious pain, yet no action was taken against Tarkowski beyond a minor warning.
FIFA’s Official Statement
In a shocking late-night announcement, FIFA confirmed that Samuel Barrott and the VAR officials involved in the match have been dismissed from their roles due to their “unacceptable failure to apply the Laws of the Game correctly.”
The statement reads:
“After reviewing the officiating in the Liverpool vs Everton fixture, FIFA’s Refereeing Committee has determined that the match officials failed to uphold the highest standards required at the elite level. As a result, referee Samuel Barrott and the VAR team have been relieved of their duties with immediate effect.”
Justice for Liverpool? Or Too Harsh?
• Many Liverpool fans are celebrating the decision, calling it long overdue accountability for poor refereeing.
• Some believe this should set a precedent to improve officiating across the league.
• Others argue that VAR itself is the real issue, not just the officials.
