Talking points: Alisson makes history, captain Bobby, Thiago the creator

The goalkeeper scored in the 95th minute of the Reds’ match against West Bromwich Albion to snatch a 2-1 win that sustains his team’s push for a top-four finish in the Premier League.

Here are five talking points to emerge from a quite remarkable afternoon at The Hawthorns…

Goal number 10,067

As Alisson made his way forward for a stoppage-time corner, 10,066 goals had been scored throughout Liverpool’s rich 129-year history.

Zero of the 458 players responsible for those goals were ‘keepers.

And then, it happened.

Trent Alexander-Arnold produced a set-piece delivery of trademark precision and Alisson was there to redirect the ball into the far corner via an adroit glance that Andy Robertson perhaps described best.
