Darwin Nunez scored two goals to secure all three points for Liverpool at Newcastle United on Sunday
Liverpool supporters have taken to social media to react to Darwin Nunez's stunning match-winning cameo against Newcastle on Sunday afternoon.
The Uruguayan, a second-half substitute for 10-man Liverpool, scored twice in the closing stages to complete an incredible turnaround for Jurgen Klopp's side. The Reds found themselves a goal and a man down at half-time after Anthony Gordon had fired the hosts ahead before Virgil van Dijk was controversially sent off for a last-ditch challenge on Alexander Isak.
But after being sent on by Klopp in the 77th minute, Nunez latched on to a mistake by Sven Botman to fire Liverpool level with a cool finish into the far corner. And, just 12 minutes later, the Uruguayan grabbed his and Liverpool's second with another exquisite finish from a Mohamed Salah through-ball.READ MORE: Nunez gives Liverpool lift off as Newcastle legend reacts and Tindall silenced
