A VAR expert has explained how Luis Diaz's first-half goal against Tottenham was chalked of for offside.
to help make sense of the decision, Johnson wrote:"So the VAR, Darren England, checked offside thinking the onfield decision was 'goal'.
"It was a quick offside check because it was clear Diaz was onside, so he told the referee 'check complete'. In telling the ref"check complete" he is saying the onfield decision was correct."So the 'human error' by the VAR team is getting the onfield decision wrong. Not by failing to draw lines etc. The lines were drawn and Diaz was clearly onside.
"The goal by Luis 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 immediately be contacting Liverpool at the conclusion of the fixture to acknowledge the error."
