Pep Guardiola has issued a brutal response to Jurgen Klopp's plea for Liverpool's defeat to Tottenham to be replayed.
The Reds have been at the centre of an ongoing VAR controversy after the PGMOL confirmed that Luis Diaz's goal was incorrectly chalked off for offside.
A damning audio of VAR's miscommunication with referee Simon Hooper has subsequently been released.
Meanwhile, the Premier League's Independent Panel have since confirmed that Diogo Jota should have not been shown a second yellow card.
Speaking in a press conference on Wednesday, Klopp suggested that a replay was the only fair solution - an idea which the likes of Gary Neville have dismissed.
Manchester City boss Guardiola has now given his opinion on the matter, stating that Liverpool must "accept it"."I said before the game in the Champions League, so it's done. It was a mistake, accept it," he told reporters.
"It's always difficult, humans can make mistakes but the machines have to do it - the VAR is there to reduce that (mistake).
"All the humans make the mistakes, we do."At the end, the machines had been (introduced) for human beings so it's a mistake, hopefully it's finished here, getting better and improve (from) that.
"The Premier League or people from VAR will improve at that to avoid and the reason it's there is for a fair game.
"The VAR was implemented to make our game more right, hopefully will be better in the future."
Both officials involved in the VAR failures at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Darren England and Dan Cook have been stood down for their next two Premier League fixtures.
While separate reports have claimed that England has been banned from officiating the Merseyside club for the rest of the campaign.
