Nunez shirt snub, Van Dijk squares up & bath time – 4 things spotted vs. Brighton

Fans have different feelings about the homemade signs that asked for players’ shirts that were up at Anfield as usual.

Darwin Nunez saw someone with a sign in the crowd, which many people liked, but he chose to give his shirt to a nearby ballboy instead of looking over at the crowd.

Is correct.

 A record crowd

The official attendance number for Sunday’s league game at Anfield was 60,061, which was the largest crowd the stadium has ever seen.

This is because the new Anfield Road Stand opened, which means it’s getting closer to being finished.

The most people who have ever been to Anfield for any event is 61,905, which happened in 1952 against Wolves in the FA Cup. At that time, most of the stadium was standing room only.

 

Two wingers in the bath

Luis Diaz put on another great show, proving many people who didn’t believe in him wrong. Though Mo Salah wasn’t at his best, he still scored the game-winning goal.

That was a good day for the two of them. After the game, they took a bath and posted this picture on Salah’s Instagram story.Liverpool’s 2-1 win over Brighton made Easter Sunday at Anfield a great day for Liverpool fans. Here are four things you might have missed.

The Reds are two points ahead of second-placed Chelsea in the Premier League. They look strong and will soon have key players back from illness.

Fans were happy about the win, but you might have missed some parts of the game in all the fun and parties.

We saw four things during the Liverpool 2-1 Brighton game…

 

Don’t mess with Van Dijk

At one point in the first half, Liverpool was getting ready to defend a free kιck when Brighton center back Jan Paul van Hecke got caught up with Virgil van Dijk.

At first glance, it looked like Van Hecke was trying to block Van Dijk while he was getting ready to move. This made Liverpool’s leader angry.On the field, Van Dijk almost lost his cool when he squared up to his teammate for a short time, but he quickly calmed down and refocused.

If you want to figҺt, you shouldn’t go up against the Reds’ No. 4. He looked like he could have punched Van Hecke here!
