Amazon apologizes to Slot following Newcastle match controversy

The Liverpool-Newcastle match not only provided a thrilling draw but also sparked a controversial moment, although it only indirectly involved the match participants.

Details: During the broadcast on Amazon Prime, host Dan Walker claimed that Liverpool manager Arne Slot entered the referee’s room and spoke to match official Andy Madley at halftime. However, it was later revealed that this information was incorrect.

While there was indeed a conversation between Slot and Madley, it took place before the match and in the tunnel. The broadcaster issued an apology to Liverpool, which was accepted by the club, and both parties have considered the matter closed.

Reminder: The match between Newcastle and Liverpool ended in a 3-3 draw, with the "Magpies" salvaging a point only at the very end.
