<\/p>\n

VAR is under major scrutiny once again after the PGMOL admitted that Luis Diaz\u2019s goal was incorrectly ruled out for offside in Liverpool\u2019s 2-1 defeat against Tottenham on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Diaz met a through ball from Mohamed Salah and scored to put Liverpool ahead in the 34th minute, but the assistant referee put up his flag for offside.<\/p>\n

After a very brief check by the VAR team, play was allowed to resume, even though television replays clearly showed that Diaz was onside when Salah had played the pass.<\/p>\n

WHAT WENT WRONG?<\/h2>\n

VAR official, Darren England, mistakenly thought that the onfield decision was a \u2018goal\u2019 and identified that Diaz was onside. He then told the onfield team \u2018check complete\u2019 to confirm that Diaz\u2019s goal was legitimate.<\/p>\n

However, referee Simon Hooper believed that \u2018check complete\u2019 meant that the VAR team had confirmed the initial decision that Diaz was offside and continued play.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

PGMOL STATEMENT<\/h2>\n

A statement issued by the referees\u2019 body after Liverpool\u2019s defeat read: \u2018PGMOL acknowledge a significant human error occurred during the first half of Tottenham Hotspur v Liverpool.<\/p>\n

\u2018The goal by Luiz Diaz was disallowed for offside by the on-field team of match officials. This was a clear and obvious factual error and should have resulted in the goal being awarded through VAR intervention, however, the VAR failed to intervene. PGMOL will conduct a full review into the circumstances which led to the error.\u2019<\/p>\n

When informed of the PGMOL\u2019s statement admitting the mistake Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp said: \u2018Who does that help now?<\/p>\n

\u2018We had that situation in the Wolves-Man United game. Did Wolves get the points? No.<\/p>\n

\u2018We will not get points for it so it doesn\u2019t help. Nobody expects 100 per cent right decisions on field but we all thought when VAR comes in that it might make things easier.<\/p>\n

\u2018I don\u2019t know why the people\u2026 are they that much under pressure? Today the decision was made really quick I would say for that goal. It changed the momentum of the game, so that\u2019s how it is.\u2019<\/p>\n
