PGMOL has admitted significant human error was behind Luis Diazs goal being ruled out for Liverpool at Tottenham; the VAR team mistakenly thought the on-field decision had been to award the goal; VAR Darren England and assistant VAR Dan Cook stood down from next scheduled matches
To add insult to injury for Liverpool, Heung-Min Son scored Spurs' opener two minutes later, while a Joel Matip own goal in injury-time handed the hosts a 2-1 win.Luis Diaz has a goal ruled out for Liverpool after being incorrectly ruled offside, with VAR Darren England failing to intervene.Andre Onana recklessly challenged Sasa Kalajdzic inside the Manchester United box but VAR Jonathan Moss failed to instruct on-pitch referee Simon Hooper to check the pitchside monitor for a penalty.
Cook was set to be involved for Fulham's home game against Chelsea on Monday - also live on Sky Sports - but Eddie Smart has taken his place.Sky Sports senior reporter Melissa Reddy: Michael Oliver - who was the fourth official in north London - was the referee for the game in the UAE.has been told an approach was made to the FA for the use of the trio and it was subsequently approved, with it not affecting their availability to be selected for Premier League fixtures.The officials arrived back in London on Friday to prepare for VAR and fourth official duties, which - according to PGMOL - is routine for those who have had international appointments in midweek.
Jurgen Klopp is not appeased when he learns of the PGMOL statement admitting a 'significant human error' led to Luis Diaz's goal being incorrectly disallowed "There is a moment where the ref looks sick! On the gantry the VAR screen was locked on the offside decision whilst the game went on. They knew pretty much straight away but for some reason didn't go back or can't through rules go back!"Fellow Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher added:"It's an horrendous mistake no matter how they did it.
