"For me, it is offside' - Liverpool boss Klopp disagrees with VAR decision on Tottenham equaliser

Son Heung-min's Tottenham equaliser should not have stood despite a VAR review ruling it was a good goal, according to Liverpool coach Jurgen Klopp.

Son looked to be offside to the naked eye just before he received the ball and strode through to finish clinically past Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson.
