Former Liverpool star Ryan Babel mocks referee Simon Hooper after Luis Diaz goal was wrongly disallowed with throwback to famous Howard Webb tweet

Former Liverpool player Ryan Babel has taken to social media to mock referee Simon Hooper following Luis Diaz's controversial disallowed goal against Tottenham.

The Colombian had the ball in the back of the net as he thought he gave Liverpool the lead in the first half.

However, the flag was up for offside and after a short VAR check, it was confirmed to be the correct decision.

Despite this, replays showed that Diaz was in fact onside and this led to a PGMOL statement confirming that there was 'human error in the decision'.
