  • Alisson Becker was partly to blame for two of Arsenal's goals in their 3-1 victory over Liverpool
  • Alisson had a mix-up with Virgil van Dijk before Leandro Trossard nutmegged him for the third
  • Arsenal won the game 3-1 and now are just two points behind the Reds on the Premier League

Alisson Becker has had a day to forget.

The Liverpool keeper indirectly played a part in two of the goals his side conceded against Arsenal.

As noted by The Telegraph, Arsenal won 3-1 to dent Liverpool’s title hopes. Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard all got onto the scoresheet for the Gunners.

Liverpool's only goal came courtesy of a Gabriel own goal.

While the Arsenal supporters were celebrating their win, football fans on social media were reacting to Alisson’s performance.

The keeper had a moment to forget when he and Virgil van Dijk had a mix-up, which resulted in Martinelli scoring Arsenal’s second.

Things went from bad to worse for the Brazilian keeper later on in the game as he failed to stop Trossard’s shot.

The ball went through the keeper’s legs, adding to his embarrassment. With Arsenal picking up the win and closing the gap to Liverpool to two points, social media wasted no time trolling the keeper.

Alisson gives verdict on Andre Onana

Sports Brief reported earlier this season how Liverpool’s Alisson Becker expected fellow keeper Andre Onana to bounce back.

The Cameroonian keeper endured a tough start to his career at Manchester United following his move from Inter Milan.

The Liverpool shot-stopper stated that Onana had the skills to turn things around, adding that he needed time to adjust.
