Former Manchester United defender Gary Neville joked that there were 55,000 VAR fans after Luis Diaz's offside goal was overturned for Liverpool against Tottenham Hotspur.

Anfield was left stunned after former Liverpool striker Dominic Solanke scored a superb header to break the deadlock after 12 minutes.



However, the North London club's lead lasted a mere four minutes after Dominik Szoboszlai laid it on a plate for Diaz to score his 13th goal in the Premier League this term.

Alexis Mac Allister added another show-stopper to his growing list of highlights in a red shirt with a thumping left-footed effort rocketed into the top corner.

There's that delayed reaction from Diaz and the coach."

Liverpool were cruising and in a comfortable lead going into the half-time interval after Cody Gakpo got himself on the teamsheet with a brilliant effort.
