Kai Havertz thought he had opened the scoring inside the first five minutes in Chelsea's pivotal clash against Liverpool with both clubs hoping to thrust themselves back into the Premier League top four conversation.
An early corner by Mason Mount caused chaos in the Liverpool box with Thiago Silva pouncing on the loose ball, poking an effort towards goal that rebounded off the post. Havertz then reacted quickest to prod home from just a few yards out.
Initially the linesman kept his flag down with Graham Potter believing his side had taken a crucial early lead. However, VAR began checking the goal and later deemed that Havertz was offside from Silva's shot.
