Darwin Nunez sends Liverpool fans message after Brentford drama
Today at 11:00 AM
Liverpool hero Darwin Nunez celebrated on social media after scoring a dramatic stoppage-time brace to secure a vital Premier League victory over Brentford.
The Uruguayan international was introduced as a substitute in the 65th minute and turned the game around with two late goals, clinching all three points for the Reds at the Gtech Community Stadium.
The win proved pivotal in the title race, as Arsenal's later draw with Aston Villa left the Reds six points clear at the top of the table.
Nunez took to Instagram to celebrate the triumph, sharing multiple posts on his story. One standout image showed him holding his shirt aloft and turned to display his name to the away fans, tagging Liverpool in the moment of glory.
Liverpool may have their striker problem solved if Darwin Nunez finds form
Arne Slot has shown limited faith in the striker this season, handing him just seven Premier League starts. Nunez even seemed to frustrate the manager with an earlier missed opportunity before his dramatic late brace.
However, he has always been the kind of striker who thrives on confidence, and this could be the perfect chance for him to build momentum and reclaim his place in the starting XI.
Football Insider revealed that Liverpool have been open to listening to offers for Nunez, as he has seemingly fallen out of Slot's plans.
Yet, his composed finishing against Brentford may force a rethink, especially with Slot’s ongoing search to solidify the striker position. The 25-year-old still has the chance to make himself indispensable.
Football Insider Verdict
Luis Diaz started up front against Brentford, with Cody Gakpo and Diogo Jota also filling in there this season, though all three are traditionally wingers.
As a result, Nunez's role in the squad has been significantly diminished. However, his celebration and confident display could be a message to fans and management that his name and number shouldn't be forgotten just yet.
Liverpool now turn their attention to a Champions League clash at home against Lille, where they'll look to maintain their unbeaten record and extend their perfect run in the competition.
