Replays confirmed Diaz was actually onside and the goal should have stood, but VAR official England wrongly thought the goal had originally been given, and uttered the words &#8216;check complete&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>When discussing the incident with Owen, Webb insisted:\u00a0&#8216;There\u2019s obviously a process in place that sits in the laws of the game about how we use VAR to make sure it is delivered consistently throughout every league in the world. And it doesn\u2019t allow you to go back in those circumstances. As such they decided not to intervene.&#8217;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/11\/12\/76392825-12618601-The_VAR_official_considered_stopping_the_game_after_it_restarted-a-19_1697023583434.jpg\" height=\"357\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>PGMOL chief Howard Webb (above) backed the decision from VAR officials not to restart Liverpool&#8217;s clash with Tottenham despite the mistake<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/11\/12\/76391719-12618601-Replays_showed_Luis_Diaz_s_goal_should_have_stood_but_the_VAR_of-a-20_1697023585631.jpg\" height=\"421\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Replays showed Luis Diaz&#8217;s goal should have stood, but the VAR official misunderstood the original decision and called &#8216;check complete&#8217;, meaning the goal was wrongly ruled out<\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>In response to Webb&#8217;s explanation, some fans voiced their frustrations with the application of VAR in the Premier League and some even called for it&#8217;s removal entirely.<\/p>\n<p>One commenter said: &#8216;Too many errors and not enough accountability.

Why are they literally treating it like Sunday League Football.&#8217;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Another commenter followed a similar theme, as they said: &#8216;In a multi billion pound product if you listen to the VAR audio you would think they are officiating Sunday league&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>One user lambasted Webb&#8217;s explanation, as he said: &#8216;Hasn&#8217;t actually said much here. The entitlement and arrogance of the PGMOL is astounding.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Still this matter remains unresolved, and VAR is beyond the gutter.

Actually, the VAR and the AVAR asked themselves that question too when the penny dropped as to what had happened, I think 20 seconds had passed.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;At that point they considered whether they could intervene to stop the game but they recognised that the laws of the game, set by FIFA and the IFAB, doesn\u2019t allow that.<\/p>\n<p>Having clarified why the game could not be paused, Webb revealed tweaks to VAR could be made by global governing bodies in the near future that would allow off-field officials to step in if they&#8217;ve made an initial error.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I know that IFAB, in fact before this situation even happened, I knew that they were going to do a full review of the laws of the game relating to the use of VAR,&#8217; Webb told Owen.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;It has been in place for seven years now, when it was written there had never been a game that had utilised VAR anywhere in the world. They put a protocol in place and it has served the game really well. But now we have lived experience of situations like we saw this week.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;We can feed into that as well and IFAB will look into whether there is a need to tweak some of it.
