On Saturday, Spurs defeated Liverpool at home in the Premier League, but a terrible VAR decision has stolen all the attention from the game.
Sunday’s first-half goal by left winger Luis Diaz, who had received a through ball from Mohamed Salah, was ruled to have been offside.The VAR was instantly activated when the linesman raised the offside flag. But the VAR chose to stick with the on-field decision in a split second, which was questionable considering they didn’t even bother to draw the line.Everyone suspected there was a problem, and their suspicions were verified when, following the game, an official statement was made confessing to a “significant human error.”The assertion
PGMOL will thoroughly examine the circumstances that gave rise to the error.
The exact cause of the human error has now been exposed on X by ESPN journalist Dale Johnson.
In his essay, he explained: “So the VAR, Darren England, verified offside thinking the onfield ruling was ‘goal’. Because Diaz was clearly onside, the referee completed the short offside check by saying, “Check complete.”
