Luton Town vs Liverpool in pictures<\/h3>\n

The Luton Town media team trolled Darwin Nunez and couldn’t believe his horrendous miss at Kenilworth Road on Sunday evening. The Hatters managed to secure a point against Liverpool in a valiant performance by Rob Edwards\u2019 side that frustrated the Reds and forced several tactical rethinks.<\/p>\n

Luton looked like they were going to secure a historic victory when ex-Manchester United star Tahith Chong gave his side the lead in the 80th minute. The Dutch midfielder managed to steer his strike past Alisson to cap off an excellent counter-attack that saw the Hatters break with speed down the right.<\/p>\n

However, Liverpool hit back in the 95th minute through second-half substitute Luis Diaz, who returned to Klopp\u2019s matchday squad for the first time since his parents were kidnapped in Colombia last week. The winger rose highest at the back post to score a header that ensured Liverpool gained a late point against their newly-promoted opponents.<\/p>\n

Luton were resilient against the constant pressure of Liverpool and managed to limit the Anfield outfit to very few clear-cut opportunities. But the Reds did miss a significant chance in the 71st minute when they should have taken the lead.<\/p>\n

After a cross to Mohamed Salah at the back post, the Egyptian misplaced his header and diverted the ball into the path of Nunez instead. The ex-Benfica star showed no composure from just a few yards out though and blazed his effort over the bar. The linesman ruled the chance as offside to spare his blushes in the short term, though replays showed that the goal would likely have been given.<\/p>\n
