“Freedom for Dad”, Luis Díaz scores an important goal with Liverpool and dedicates it to his kidnapped father

Liverpool drew 1-1 with Luton Town thanks to a goal by Luis Díaz in the 90+5 that he dedicated to his father who is being held hostage by the National Liberation Army (ELN).

The Colombian avoided the disaster for his team against Luton, one of the candidates for relegation, and in the 96th minute, With a header, he scored one of the most special goals of his career and dedicated it to his father, who is still held captive by the Colombian guerrilla.

After not being included in the squad for the last two games, against Nottingham Forest and Bournemouth, Díaz decided to return to training this week and asked Jürgen Klopp to be part of the team that faced Luton this Sunday.

He started on the bench and from there he saw how Luton came close to the big surprise of the eleven league games that have passed.

The ‘Hatters’, as they are known for the hat on their shield, surprised Jürgen Klopp’s men after lasting almost the entire game thanks to the stops of Thomas Kaminski and taking advantage of a counterattack in the last minutes to take the lead.

Darwin Núñez’s lack of aim and Luton’s effectiveness meant that in the 95th minute, the ‘Hatters’ had it done. And Liverpool started very well.

Darwin, the disastrous protagonist of the match, recorded four shots in the first fifteen minutes; two of them outside and two others to embellish Kaminski’s stretches.

Luton savored one of the most important goals in their recent history. Until minute 96, when Luis Díaz, who had come off four minutes after Luton’s goal, headed in a delivery from Kostas Tsimikas and made it 1-1.

The Colombian took off his shirt and showed the message “Freedom for Dad,” asking for his father’s release.
