Luis Diaz came back to the Liverpool team and scored as a substitute to tie the game 1-1 against Luton Town on Sunday.
The Colombian player was unable to participate in recent matches due to the unexpected abduction of his parents. However, he chose to return and scored a crucial goal in the last moments of the game, earning a point for his team. This came after Tahith Chong’s late goal seemed to secure a remarkable victory for the Hatters.
Luton remains in the bottom three while Liverpool moves up to third place, surpassing Arsenal, with one point each.
During the game, a spectator was ejected from the field for running and waving a flag of Palestine, shortly after Luton had scored the first goal.

Following a week filled with distressing news, Luis Diaz creates a new narrative for Liverpool.
Unfortunately, Luis Diaz was the one to make it happen, wasn’t he? The stories for this match were already crafted, the headlines were nearly finished, and the Colombian – who has endured a truly terrible few weeks – emerged to create his own unique narrative.
After six minutes of stoppage time and with Luton Town believing they were close to achieving a major victory, they ended up settling for a well-earned tie. This result was well-deserved, but also served as a reminder of the cutthroat nature of the premier league, how small the differences between success and failure can be, and how challenging it will be to secure any points, let alone avoid relegation.
Karl Matchett’s comprehensive report from Kenilworth Road:
The match between Luton Town and Liverpool.
The final whistle blows as Luton and Liverpool end the match with a 1-1 tie at Kenilworth Road. Luton had to defend against a lot of pressure from Liverpool before a quick counter-attack led to their goal, with Kabore making a strong run and delivering a perfect cross for Chong to score. Luton held on for most of the added time, but in the 95th minute, Elliott crossed the ball to Diaz who headed it past Kaminski for Liverpool’s equalizer. Diaz celebrated by revealing a message on his shirt in support of his missing father in Colombia. Luton fans cheered as the match ended, reflecting the momentum Liverpool had gained in their search for a winner. Luton managed to secure one point, moving them out of the relegation zone and up to 17th place. Liverpool moved up to third place, ahead of Arsenal on goal difference, and will now focus on their upcoming Europa League match against Toulouse on Thursday. Luton will aim to continue their success when they face Manchester United at Old Trafford next Saturday. That concludes our coverage from Kenilworth Road, thank you for joining us and goodbye!
