LONDON — The referees' governing body in England admitted a "significant human error" after Luis Diaz had a goal ruled offside in Liverpool's 2-1 loss at Tottenham. Diaz struck what he thought was a 34th-minute goal in the Premier League match at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Afterward the Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL) admitted the mistake. Joel Matip's own-goal deep into stoppage time handed Tottenham the win in a match that also saw Liverpool reduced to nine men. Liverpool looked set to hold on for a draw before Matip turned Pedro Porro's low cross into his own net in the sixth minute of added-on time.
