Liverpool's manager, Jurgen Klopp, has advocated for a replay of the match against Tottenham following a VAR error that led to Luis Diaz's goal being disallowed for offside.

Klopp emphasized the importance of addressing such incidents properly and fairly, acknowledging that the officials involved, including the on-field referee, linesman, fourth official, and VAR, did not make the mistake intentionally. He believed there were potential solutions available after the fact.

While acknowledging that a replay may not materialize, Klopp, speaking not only as Liverpool's manager but also as a football enthusiast, stated that it should be the only appropriate outcome given the circumstances.

Diaz was incorrectly flagged offside, as replays later revealed he was onside. However, VAR official Darren England mistakenly thought the on-field decision was to award the goal, leading him to inform the referee, Simon Hooper, that the check was complete.

Following the revelation of their error by the replay operator after the goal was not given, England and assistant VAR Dan Cook stated they could not intervene as the game had resumed.

Klopp acknowledged the potential argument against a replay, suggesting that many would request it if such a precedent were set. He highlighted the rarity of such a situation, expressing his astonishment that, in all his years in football, he had never witnessed a mistake of this nature.
