Experience the remarkable moment as Alisson Becker and Liverpool fans come together to honor Darwin Nunez at full-time! In a true display of camaraderie and respect, Alisson took the lead in encouraging the crowd to acknowledge Nunez’s outstanding performance. This is more than just a celebration—it’s a testament to the unity and passion that define Liverpool. Every chant and gesture reflects the class and spirit of this legendary club.

Alisson Becker: More Than Just a World-Class Goalkeeper

Liverpool’s number one isn’t just the best goalkeeper in the world—he’s also an outstanding teammate. Since arriving from Roma in 2018, Alisson has consistently delivered top performances, and he produced his finest display yet with nine crucial saves in Liverpool’s midweek victory away to Paris Saint-Germain.

However, the 32-year-old had a moment to forget this afternoon when a miscommunication with Virgil van Dijk allowed Will Smallbone to score Southampton’s opening goal at Anfield. Despite this setback, Liverpool ultimately secured a 3-1 win.

Alisson Encourages Anfield to Applaud Nunez

After the final whistle, as fans chanted Alisson’s name in recognition of his heroics, the Brazilian shifted the spotlight onto a teammate instead.

With an arm around Darwin Nunez, he gestured toward the Uruguayan, encouraging supporters to celebrate him. Nunez responded by raising a fist to the Main Stand in acknowledgment.

Liverpool’s number nine had a significant impact on the match, scoring the equaliser just after halftime and winning the first of two penalties converted by Mo Salah.

His contributions were vital in securing yet another second-half comeback at Anfield.

A Selfless Gesture from Alisson

Since joining Liverpool three years ago, Nunez has faced constant criticism from pundits, and while his game can be frustrating at times, he has made a real difference on the pitch this week.

Aside from his performance today, he played a crucial role against PSG, holding off Marquinhos to set up Harvey Elliott’s winning goal when he could have taken the shot himself.

Alisson was undoubtedly aware of the scrutiny Nunez has endured, and rather than basking in the crowd’s praise, he redirected their support to his teammate—a true act of class and selflessness.

It’s this kind of team-first mentality that has been instrumental in Liverpool extending their lead at the top of the Premier League to 16 points overnight. Of course, having a goalkeeper of Alisson’s caliber certainly helps, too!
