Leaked Liverpool vs Wolves footage shows controversial offside in full and ref's command

New footage of Wolves' disallowed goal at Liverpool has emerged following their controversial FA Cup clash at Anfield.

The controversial late strike, bundled home from close range by Toti Gomes, would likely have won the game for the Premier League strugglers in front of their away fans. The Wolves players reeled away in celebration, but new footage shows referee Andy Madley instructing his assistant to put his flag up after initially keeping it down when the ball hit the back of the net.

Originally the man on the sideline kept his flag down and began walking back to halfway, suggesting he was happy with the goal. Madley then communicated and asked that he put the flag up, several seconds after the goal, presumably after discussions between the officials. The on-field decision was then upheld as VAR had no clear angle to prove that Matheus Nunes was onside earlier in the move.
