The Uruguayan caused chaos against Toulouse.
The Uruguayan impossibly missed from eight yards Jurgen Klopp has praised Darwin Nunez for his performance in Liverpool’s thumping 5-1 victory over Toulouse in the Europa League despite missing a ‘slapstick’ open goal. The Merseysiders got off to a fast start at Anfield on Thursday night, with a mazy run from Diogo Jota opening the scoring, but were pegged back when Thijs Dallinga netted minutes later.
The Anfield crowd couldn’t believe Nunez had missed ‘He played really good, the goal he scored, the situation he was involved, dropping into midfield, staying on the ball, all these kind of things. So there were a lot of good things and he is in a good moment, and obviously for us that is important. ‘So really pleased for him with the performance. Yes, it’s a bit of slapstick that the ball doesn’t go in but Ryan finished it off and then it’s cool.
