Darwin Nunez had another busy game against Newcastle but this time there was no goals for him after his brace in the reverse fixture.
He did get an assist though to get Mo Salah’s first goal of the evening and break the deadlock.
The Uruguayan striker had several chances to score himself with eight shots on goal, five being on target.
His best opportunity was a one-on-one with Martin Dubravka in the first half but the goalkeeper did well to save his attempt at goal.
In the second half, the closest he came was from a header from a cross by Trent Alexander-Arnold.
After the game, Jurgen Klopp spoke about his performance.
Jurgen Klopp praises Darwin Nunez’s display against Newcastle United
Speaking to Sky after the game Klopp admitted he was pleased with Nunez even though he did not get on the scoresheet.
When asked about Nunez’s frustrations he said: “I don’t know what you are really talking about.
“Of course he is not happy not scoring. Football is a pretty simple game, put the ball in the back of the net.
“We were talking outside, it was 100% the right decision to have Darwin in the team because he kept Botman and Schar together.
“That game us the space for everything else. It is completely different if Cody is there.”
He continued: “Nobody has to worry about Darwin. He is fine. Played a really good game decided the game with an unselfish pass to Mo.
“We needed him there. As long as Darwin has all these moments today which he has today, it is all fine. I don’t know exactly what amount of goals he has scored in the season but a lot, Darwin will score and there is no doubt about it.
“The only problem is if the public wouldn’t watch us, it is all fine.
“Because then it is just he is doing right and he has to start again and again. He gets questioned on social media and that disturbs him slightly.”
So far this season Nunez has played 28 games in all competitions and has scored eight goals whilst getting eight assists.
