LUTON, England (Reuters) -Liverpool's Colombian forward Luis Diaz came off the bench on Sunday to score an emotional late equaliser in a 1-1 Premier League draw at struggling Luton Town, dedicating the goal to his kidnapped father.

The 26-year-old dropped out of Liverpool's game last weekend after his parents were seized by armed men in Colombia, but he asked to be back in the squad and manager Juergen Klopp sent him on for the final minutes with the visitors a goal down.
