The audio recording of the discussion between the match officials that led to Luis Diaz’s goal being wrongly disallowed has been made public, and makes for embarrassing listening for the VAR officials.
Liverpool forward Diaz scored in the first half of the Reds' 2-1 Premier League defeat to Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday but was incorrectly adjudged to have been offside by the on-field official.
The decision was not over-ruled by VAR officials Darren England and his assistant Daniel Cook, despite images clearly showing Diaz was onside.
Liverpool asked for a recording of what happened and Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL) has taken the step to publicly release the communication into how the bungled verdict was reached.
