The video assistant referee team failed to overturn Luis Diaz’s disallowed goal, despite the Liverpool forward clearly being onside, while the referees’ body admitted after the match that a “significant human error” had been made. Howard Webb also spoke to Liverpool after the match and there was an apology from the referees’ chief.
It has been revealed that Diaz’s goal was incorrectly ruled out for offside because the VAR team checking the decision mistakenly thought that the on-field decision was onside. It has emerged that VAR lead official England drew the lines to check for offside and followed the process correctly to determine Diaz was onside for the goal.
