Luis Diaz returned to the Liverpool squad and scored off the bench to secure a 1-1 draw at Luton Town on Sunday.

The Colombian had missed the past few matches after the shocking kidnapping of his parents, but opted to make his comeback - and duly netted deep into stoppage time to seal a point, after Tahith Chong’s late goal looked to have claimed a famous win for the Hatters.

A point apiece keeps Luton in the bottom three and lifts Liverpool to third, ahead of Arsenal.

During the match one fan was removed from the pitch for running on waving a Palestine flag, shortly after Luton had scored their opener.

Nunez's nine shots are the joint-most of any player in a Premier League match this season (Marcus Rashford v Brighton and Erling Haaland v West Ham – also nine).

Liverpool want a penalty as Van Dijk is hauled to the turf by Mengi with a corner coming over from the left, but the referee decides against awarding a spot-kick before a subsequent VAR check confirms his decision.
