Luis Diaz was in an offside position when Ryan Gravenberch played the ball forward, but Jota capitalised after Tarkowski cut out a pass heading in his direction.
Diogo Jota posted on social media after his performance against Everton as Liverpool won the Merseyside derby.
Speaking on Match of the Day, former England and Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart said: "When that ball is played, Luis Diaz is making no attempt to stop Tarkowski from getting that ball. He's making absolutely no attempt to make an action towards the ball. "When it comes to play, he is onside.

When Ryan Gravenberch played a ball forward, Luis Diaz was standing in an offside position behind the final Everton defender - albeit he made no movement toward the ball. Liverpool then recycled the play and Diaz's cute backheel was finished off by Diogo Jota for what turned out to be the winner.
