Liverpool fans have hailed Alisson for producing an incredible save against Crystal Palace.
Eberechi Eze fired the visitors ahead to the shock of everyone in Anfield before Jean-Philippe Mateta pounced on a Virgil van Dijk error.
However, the Frenchman’s shot was cleared off the line by Andy Robertson as the score remained level.
Palace should have doubled their lead in the second half, through Mateta again, but Alisson was on hand to stop them.
His save has now been hailed as one of the best in Premier League history.
Liverpool fans have hailed Alisson for producing an incredible save against Crystal Palace
The save has been lauded as ‘the most ridiculous save you’ll ever see’
Speaking ahead of the game, Jamie Carragher highlighted just how important the Brazilian is to Liverpool.
He said: ‘I think it’s huge to have Alisson back. Kelleher has been fantastic but you’re taking about one of the best goalkeepers in the world.
‘When you see Alisson in goal, I think that will knock your confidence slightly.’
And now he has lived up to the pre-match words, pulling off one of the best saves you will ever see.
Fans took to social media to praise for Reds keeper as one said: ‘Alisson with perhaps the most ridiculous save you’ll ever see to keep it 0-1!’
Another fan showed his love for the shot-stopper.
‘I love Alisson Becker more than anything,’ they wrote.
One supporter admitted that there was nothing Mateta could have done better, with Alisson’s save being ‘ridiculous’.
He said: That is a ridiculous save from Alisson. Not sure Mateta done anything wrong.’
Despite Alisson’s heroics, Liverpool’s attackers couldn’t find the goal that they needed and fell to defeat at the hands of Crystal Palace.
