Commentators covering Liverpool’s game against West Bromwich Albion for South Korea based SPOTV had a major collective goalgasm live on air after Alisson scored in the 95th minute at the Hawthorns.
Considering their Champions League qualifications were at stake, Liverpool left it very late to score the goal which would eventually bag them all 3 points against a rigid Big Sam side.
Nobody expected Alisson to come up with the goods, certainly not these South Korean commentators, who went berserk after the goal.
Via Reddit, here is a translated version of what was frantically said between the two commentators after Alisson headed home a last-minute winner for Liverpool –
“A: Even Alisson is coming up. B: I wonder how this will go? A: In reality, this is the last chance. A/B: Wow!! Wow!! Wow!! Alisson! Alisson!! Alisson!! A: It’s a theatre goal (term used for a last-minute goal)!! B: Alisson put it in. A: Score is 2:1 Liverpool!! B: The goalkeeper was the problem solver!”
