THE Liverpool held out until the final seconds of stoppage time with nine men but eventually bowed out with an own goal against Tottenhamcausing him to suffer the her first loss this year.
However, things could be different if Luis Diaz’s goal had not been disallowed at 0-0, for offside.
The Colombian appeared to be covered by the defender of the Londoners, with the VAR not to intervene and social media to catch fire!
Ultimately, the PGMOL (Referees Association) stepped in, admitting that there was serious human error in the review of the phase, typically stating that “It was obvious wrong in the decision of the referee and the assistants and the goal should have counted after using VAR. However, VAR failed to intervene.”
Subsequently, it became known that a report will be written about the circumstances in which the mistake was made, while there will also be communication with Liverpool.

Am I missing something? Luis Diaz looks well onside.
I understand the angles are bad, but the cut of grass makes it look very onside #TOTLIV pic.twitter.com/7IT4LafxAW
