Toulouse Beat Liverpool In Five-Goal Thriller After Late VAR Call Disallows Jarell Quansah Equalizer

Despite the controversial nature of Toulouse's victory, the hosts had been the better side.

Goals from Aron Donnum and Thijs Dallinga - who also saw a goal disallowed - gave the French outfit a deserved 2-0 lead.

But a Cristian Casseres Jr own goal sparked hope of a Liverpool fightback in the 73rd minute.

Frank Magri restored Toulouse's two-goal advantage moments later before Diogo Jota made it 3-2 with a slick solo strike in the 89th minute.

Quansah's late effort clearly meant a lot to the 20-year-old but his celebrations were halted by a VAR review that took just under two and a half minutes to reach its conclusion.
