In a thrilling Europa League clash, Liverpool found themselves on the losing end against Toulouse in a 3-2 defeat marred by late VAR drama. The contest took an unexpected turn when Jarell Quansah’s apparent 97th-minute equalizer was disallowed due to VAR intervention. The video review revealed a critical deflection off Alexis Mac Allister’s chest onto his sleeve, prompting referee Georgi Kabakov to overturn the initial goal decision.

Toulouse, with a modest record of two wins in their last 13 games, emerged as surprising victors. Despite the setback, Liverpool remains well-positioned for qualification to the knockout stages. The match carried added emotional weight for Liverpool’s Luis Diaz, who took the field after learning of his father’s release from kidnappers in Colombia.

This encounter epitomized the unpredictable nature of football, adding another layer of excitement to a week already marked by sensational events in the world of sports.
