52 min: Wijnaldum climbs highest but his header flicks off a defender. 40 min: Wolves have grown into this a touch – Liverpool haven’t really created anything for 10 minutes or so.

So far from a vintage Liverpool performance but just about good enough to see off a much-changed Wolves lineup.

For anyone who hasn’t seen the offside, here’s a screengrab: Today in Premier League offside. First published on Sun 29 Dec 2019 15.31 GMT.

41 min: Mané has the ball in the net but the referee Anthony Taylor blows for handball against Lallana – VAR is having a look and I think this might end up being given. For me, that’s not offside in any version of the game I want to watch.

Firmino’s pass to Salah, though, is not quite good enough and the Egyptian can’t bring the ball properly under his spell. The Liverpool goal? The linesman flag was up but what does that really mean any more? Neto nods down smartly for Moutinho on the edge of the box … but he larrups his volley miles over the bar. 57 min: Neto works himself some space just outside the box but can’t direct his effort on target. Apparently over at Stockley Park they were looking both at the handball decision and whether the referee had blown the whistle before the ball had crossed the line (which he apparently had not).

From the corner, Saiss heads wide. Liverpool are hanging on a bit here. 86 min: Liverpool make changes. 71 min: Pass, pass, pass from Liverpool. This is another. 64 min: Jonny gets back to nick the ball of Mané’s toe as the Liverpool man prepares to strike at goal. Jonny had a toe offside in the buildup. Liverpool go 13 points clear at the summit. Sadio Mané’s first-half goal is just enough to give Liverpool victory over Wolves and send Jürgen Klopp’s side 13 points clear, Sun 29 Dec 2019 18.44 GMT

A bit of a let-off for Wolves that. © 2020 Guardian News & Media Limited or its affiliated companies. 90 min: A minimum of four minutes of added time to be played. 46 min: Moutinho bobbles a volley at goal as Wolves start the second period on the front foot. 87 min: Robertson crosses low across the face of goal but there’s no red shirt on the end of it. 56 min: Jota chests down at the back post and flashes a shot across goal and narrowly wide. As for Wolves, they’ll feel aggrieved by the offside decision that ruled out their “goal” in the first half and they had a flurry of half-chances late on, at least one of which they really needed to take advantage of.

Leaders Liverpool win for the 22nd time in 23 league matches thanks to Roberto Firmino's late strike at Wolves. Neves off, Saiss on. We're told the lines are usually thickened to be clearer on broadcasts so it's unclear what the original geometry produced at VAR HQ pic.twitter.com/nEuIYclnoJ.

I do think if they’re going to stick with it we need some sort of rule change where the benefit goes to the attacker in situations where it’s so close to level that there’s clearly no real world advantage. 58 min: Wolves subs: Dendoncker off, Traore on. “You have to get all decisions right. External Link, Liverpool 1-0 Wolves | Match report Read about Liverpool v Wolves in the Premier League 2019/20 season, including lineups, stats and live blogs, on the official website of the Premier League. 83 min: Jimenez uses his strength to hold off Alexander-Arnold and brings down a long ball before swatting his shot over the bar. 44 min: Lallana flicked on Van Dijk’s long pass and Mané swept home just as Taylor blew his whistle. Rather than make the whole spectacle slicker and smarter, offside VAR has introduced a new level of stupidity to the game. Right, that’s it from me.
