The “best goal i scored in my life” according to Alexis Mac Allister

After a thrilling 4-3 Premier League victory over Fulham on Sunday, Alexis Mac Allister declared that his first goal for Liverpool was the best of his career.
Anfield was electrified by the midfielder’s incredible 27-yard goal in the first half, but Wataru Endo and Trent Alexander-Arnold’s late goals were ultimately necessary for Jürgen Klopp’s team to win an incredible triumph.
After the game, a beaming Mac Allister talked about his first Reds appearance with Liverpoolfc.com.
“I had a nice one against Leicester [for Brighton] but it was disallowed,” says the player. “I believe that to be the best goal I have ever scored in my life.
“Not a bad start to my career there in Liverpool as a goalscorer!”
“As soon as I hit it, I knew it was going to be a goal,” he went on. Although I often say that when I play as a No. 6, I am not too concerned about goals and assists because I have other tasks to accomplish, it was still a really lovely goal.”
After taking the lead twice in the first half against Marco Silva’s team, Liverpool appeared to be losing when Bobby De Cordova-Reid, a substitute, handed the Cottagers an 80th-minute advantage.
But three minutes from time, Endo, who had been substituted in late, tied the score with an incredible goal, and less than two minutes later, Alexander-Arnold finished brilliantly to secure the victory.
“Endo definitely changed the game,” Mac Allister remarked. “Due to the objective and the way he assisted the team in striking the proper balance.
“The squad was playing really offensively when Jürgen brought me off, so maybe we needed a player like Endo.
“I’m thrilled for him. He deserves it; he’s a truly wonderful guy.”
Mac Allister was equally enthusiastic in his praise of Alexander-Arnold, who not only scored the game-winning goal but also assisted in forcing the first goal with a magnificent free-kick that went through the back of Fulham goalkeeper Bernd Leno.
He exclaimed, “It looks very easy for him!” “He has an easy time striking the ball. That is evident in every goal he scores.
“He’s a very important player for us, for the club, for the fans, and we are very happy for him as well.”
Liverpool’s victory over Fulham sets up a hectic December schedule that includes tough journeys to Sheffield United and Crystal Palace later this week.
“We know that December and January are two very important months to see where we are at,” said Mac Allister. “We want to fight, we want to win every game, and that’s what we are going to try.”

Report: The 20-year-old Brazilian prodigy is now the favourite to sign with Liverpool.
Liverpool has set their sights on Sao Paulo’s Lucas Beraldo, a young player, as they attempt to bolster their defence.
Brazil has great expectations for the 20-year-old, and he might end up being a valuable long-term addition to the Premier League team.
It’s no secret that Liverpool needs defence reinforcements, and the 20-year-old Joel Matip replacement may be the best option in the long run. Virgil Van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate are the team’s only other trustworthy central defenders at the moment.
According to a UOL report, Liverpool is the front-runners to sign the 20-year-old defender, but it’s unclear if they can finalise a deal. It will be tempting for the gifted young defender to sign with a major team like Liverpool, but it is unclear if the Premier League team can work out a deal with Sao Paulo.
In addition to playing left-sided central defence, Beraldo can also play right-sided central defence. Additionally, his versatility allows him to play as a defensive midfielder.
Liverpool may have made a smart investment in the 20-year-old if they can work out a fair deal with the Brazilian team for him. The defender might be a valuable long-term asset for Liverpool if he can continue to grow into a top-tier Premier League player
