Gerrard scored from a free kick, but the goal was wrongly disallowed because the referee called an offside that the line judge did not raise his flag for. Replays showed that no one was offside and that the referee was in a bad position to make such a call, but Jamie Carragher reported that the referee informed him that he made the call on his own, without the line judge. As a result the game ended in a scoreless draw when it should have been 1-0 Liverpool early in the game. If the score held, then the game would have ended 1-0 for Liverpool and would have given them 2 more points on the table. In all likelihood this would have led to more goals for the home side since Stoke would have been forced to leave their penalty area in pursuit of a goal of their own to get a result, opening up gaps in the backline for Liverpool to make their runs.
