What is a fair solution?
During the recent Spurs v Liverpool match, a Liverpool player thought he had scored only for the referee's assistant to flag it as offside and disallow the goal. The decision was checked by the VAR and they confirmed it was offside.
Spurs won the match 2-1.
The next day the VAR operators admitted they had made a mistake and they should've told the referee the player was onside and the goal should've been allowed to stand, meaning the final score would be 2-2.
Liverpool are not happy with the situation.
What would be a fair way to resolve this mess?
1. Just say sorry, the result stands. people make mistakes. lessons will be learnt etc
2. Award Liverpool the goal so the result is 2-2. Alter the table so Liverpool go up 1 point, Spurs go down 2 points.
3. Replay the game.
