Today at 10:09 AM

Liverpool fans will have been left beaming after Uruguay’s stoppage time winner against Colombia.

But that’s not because they got to watch reds striker Darwin Nunez score it. Instead, it was his celebration they absolutely loved.

Colombia had been leading 2-1 going into added time of the World Cup qualifier, with Davinson Sanchez’s own goal and Rodrigo Aguirre’s effort cancelling out Colombia’s Juan Quintero’s first half opener.

The away side then thought they’d bagged a point at the death as Andre Gomez fired in an equaliser in the sixth minute of added time.

However, with 101 minutes on the clock, Colombia struck again through Manchester United‘s Manuel Ugarte to regain their lead and win the game.

As Uruguay’s players wheeled away in wild celebration, Nunez was spotted running toward’s Colombia’s players.

But it seems there was one player in particular he wanted to goad.

Nunez had a choice of two of his club’s bitter foes Everton’s ex players – Yerry Mina and James Rodriguez.

But the Liverpool star targeted Mina, spinning around and wildly celebrating at him before running off with the rest of his teammates.

The Uruguayan team were all in a bundle on the floor as they soaked in their last-ditch victory that put them above Colombia in the table.

The South American countries now sit level on 19 points each in second and third respectively, but Uruguay boast a better goal difference of eight compared to their rivals’ six.

Argentina remain top on 22 points.

Away from his wind-up antics, Nunez has also been firing in goals for Uruguay.

In June, he completed a run of scoring in seven games in a row, bagging 10 in the process.

That equalled a record set for his country set by Hector Scarone between 1927 and 1928.

He has also helped Liverpool go top of the Premier League.

Nunez has bagged three goals in just seven starts out of 14 outings in all competitions, as well as two assists.
