Luis Diaz has had an emotional week following the kidnapping of his parents in Colombia but returned to action for Liverpool today at Kenilworth Road.
The 26-year-old was a second half substitute with the Reds trailing Luton by one goal to nil following Tahith Chong’s strike 10 minutes from time.
With eight additional minutes added, however, our No. 7 latched on to a Harvey Elliott cross to heads Jurgen Klopp’s side level.
It’s frustrating to drop two points to a side who are now just outside the relegation zone on goal difference but if you can’t win a game then don’t lose it!
As the Colombia international celebrated his strike he lifted his shirt to reveal a message which read ‘libertad para papa’ (freedom for dad).
After his mother was found earlier this week, let’s hope his father is released as soon as possible.
