🚨 BREAKING NEWS: FIFA Sends Strong Warning to Michael Oliver After Controversial Officiating in Burnley vs Liverpool Clash

Sky Sports can confirm that FIFA has officially released a strong statement regarding Premier League referee Michael Oliver following his controversial performance in Sunday’s match between Burnley and Liverpool. The match has sparked widespread outrage among fans, pundits, and players after a horrific tackle on Liverpool star Alexis Mac Allister went unpunished with a red card.

The shocking incident left Mac Allister writhing in pain and sparked fears that his career could have been in serious danger. Despite the severity of the challenge, Oliver waved play on after only issuing a yellow card – a decision that has been described as “unacceptable” by several former players and refereeing experts.

This latest controversy has reignited discussions about Oliver’s history of questionable decisions involving Liverpool. Fans were quick to point out that last season, during the Merseyside Derby, Mac Allister was also on the receiving end of a reckless challenge from Everton’s James Tarkowski, again in a match officiated by Oliver, with no red card shown. Similarly, during Liverpool’s clash with Manchester City, Jeremy Doku made a dangerous challenge on Mac Allister, yet Oliver once again failed to take decisive action.

In its official statement, FIFA expressed deep concern over the pattern of decisions made by Oliver in matches involving Liverpool, warning that such officiating “can have long-term consequences for the integrity of the game and player safety.” The statement added that FIFA would be “closely monitoring Oliver’s performances going forward” and that referees at the highest level are expected to “uphold fairness, consistency, and the protection of players at all times.”

Pundits have not held back either. Former players on Sky Sports’ panel described the situation as “a dangerous trend” and questioned how many more near-career-ending tackles it would take before stricter actions are taken against offenders. Jamie Carragher, speaking after the game, said:

> “It’s becoming a worrying pattern. Mac Allister has been on the receiving end of dangerous challenges too many times, and each time Michael Oliver has been the referee. It’s not about Liverpool getting decisions — it’s about protecting players. We cannot allow officiating like this to put players’ careers at risk.”

With Liverpool supporters voicing their frustration across social media and football bodies demanding improved standards, the spotlight is now firmly on Michael Oliver. FIFA’s warning serves as a reminder that referees are under more scrutiny than ever and that repeated controversial calls could have serious implications for both the league and the officials involved.

As the Premier League moves into a crucial stage of the season, the pressure on Oliver to deliver mistake-free performances will be immense. FIFA’s message is clear: there can be no compromise when it comes to fair play and the safety of players.
