Luis Fernando Díaz got his second goal in the Premier League with Liverpool this Saturday. He did it in the 0-2 win against Brighton & Hove Albion, a team that had another Colombian, Steven Alzate. The extreme guajiro was the great figure thanks to his annotation and imbalance by the left band. He was close to double.
After the meeting as a visitor, two of the referents filled Diaz with praise once again. Andrew Robertson and Jordan Henderson spoke with BT Sport highlighting what the Colombian has done on this Premier day. The side confirms that they have a great connection despite not understanding each other with the language. On the field everything flows.
“He doesn’t speak any English, he doesn’t understand me… It’s been incredible, he’s special and he got down to work. People are afraid of him (…) You use your people who speak Spanish to communicate. He knows where I want him and where I’m going to put the ball, so I think we already have a good relationship,” Robertson said.
For his part, Henderson pointed out that Lucho is a “first-class player.” He highlights the qualities that he has with and without the ball: “He came and did fantastically well. With the ball, the quality, his work rate, it was another great performance for him.”.
Diaz’s first goal in England had been scored against Norwich. Liverpool is second in the tournament, 3 points behind leader Manchester City. On Wednesday he visits Arsenal in London.
