Luckily for Liverpool, Alisson’s facial hair is not the key to his powers and he made four key second-half saves at Anfield to snuff out Southampton’s chances of a comeback on Saturday
Virgil van Dijk thinks Alisson looks like an American without his beard, but thankfully for Liverpool he still plays like a Brazilian.
Van Dijk has teased Alisson about his new clean-shaven look and the Liverpool goalkeeper has got rid of his trademark whiskers for the World Cup.
Luckily for Liverpool, Alisson’s facial hair is not the key to his powers and he made four key second-half saves at Anfield to snuff out Southampton’s chances of a comeback. His fourth stop from Che Adams was truly world-class and he dived low to his right to keep out the Saints striker’s head.
World-class comes as standard with Alisson and van Dijk says his teammates never take his brilliance for granted.
