The team of Jurgen Klopp he ‘steps on the heels’ of the Manchester City and with the triumph of this Saturday he reached 66 points in the Premier League (just 3 units separate them). The Colombian Luis Fernando Diaz he was key in the new victory of the ‘Reds’, not only for his goal but also for his offensive contribution. He ran, he moved where he wanted, he fought all the balls, he associated, he disturbed and he scored.
The winger of the Colombian National Team continues to gain everyone’s trust and receives praise wherever he wants because he plays as if he had spent five seasons with Liverpool, he just completed his tenth game! Against Brighton he conceded his second goal in the red shirt; he had already scored against Norwich also for the Premier League.
The 19th minute passed when Luis Díaz received a pass from Joel Matip. The defender reached the middle of the court and put in an impeccable ball; The Colombian attacked the space and after leaving two defenders relegated, he was left hand in hand with the goalkeeper. He let it bite and connected with a header before Robert Sánchez came out. The ball went to the bottom but ‘Lucho’ could not celebrate. He received a terrible blow from the goalkeeper and was left lying on the ground. With the 0-1 they went to rest.
Until the 60th minute, when Brighton complicated the ‘Reds’ at times, the second came for Klopp’s men. The referee sanctioned a penalty after a handball, which Mohamed Salah was in charge of transforming into a goal. Powerful charge to the center.
In the end, the Brazilian goalkeeper Alisson was key in the 0-2, with two important interventions when Brighton was encouraged to seek discount. Diaz wreaked havoc every time he grabbed the ball and tried until the end. He had at least two good approaches, one of them over the shot in which he chose the pass to Diogo Jota, but goalkeeper Sánchez ended up deflecting it. Awesome save!
