Footage of Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez making fun of Everton's Coady for his goal ruled out by VAR emerges

• Darwin Nunez took a swipe at Everton's Conor Coady following the defender's goal which was chopped off by the Video Assistant Referee
• Coady, who was making his Everton debut in the Merseyside derby, thought he had broken the game's deadlock only for his celebrations to be cancelled by the VAR
• Despite his goal being ruled out for offside, Coady marshalled the defence of Everton to keep a clean sheet for the first time this season

Liverpool forward Darwin Nunez poked fun at Everton defender Conor Coady after the latter's goal was ruled out by the Video Assistant Referee in the first instalment of the Merseyside derby.

Nunez made a return to Jurgen Klopp's starting lineup after serving his three-game suspension but was unable to change the destiny of Liverpool's goalless draw with Everton at Goodison Park.

Both Liverpool and Everton will feel they could have picked all three points instead of the points which were shared owing to the plethora of chances spurned by the two sides.

Everton actually got the ball at the back of the net when childhood Liverpool fan and current Everton defender Conor Coady tapped in from close range midway through the second half.

And after a wild celebration from Coady, his excitement was dashed by a decision from the VAR, which ruled the 29-year-old offside.

His disappointment was worsened when Nunez trolled the Englishman minutes after by gesturing with the VAR sign.

In the video posted on Twitter, seen by Sports Brief, Nunez seemingly taunted Coady, who had disappointment written all over his face.

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp made the bold decision to drop the in-form Roberto Firmino to pave way for Nunez, but the former Benfica man failed to capitalize on the opportunity.
