Liverpool fans got an extra treat during their 3-1 victory over AC Milan, not just from the on-field action but also from the priceless reaction of Darwin Nunez and Andy Robertson after Ibrahima Konate’s crucial goal.
The Reds initially went behind to a Christian Pulisic strike but bounced back with three goals, with Konate’s header being the turning point.
When Konate scored for Liverpool against AC Milan: Nunez and Robbo’s sideline celebration
As Konate rose to power home a header from a corner, TV cameras caught substitutes Nunez and Robertson in stitches on the sidelines.
The duo exchanged high-fives and shared a hearty laugh, sparking playful speculation from CBS Sports’ Jamie Carragher. “Look at the reaction of these two… they might have had a bet on?” joked Carragher.
“Are you allowed? Obviously not…” It seemed like Nunez and Robertson knew something was coming, perhaps jokingly predicting the goal just moments earlier.
While the night started on shaky ground with Pulisic scoring within three minutes, Liverpool held their nerve. Arne Slot’s side quickly took control, keeping possession and pressing forward to secure a well-deserved win.
After the match, Slot praised his players for their calmness under pressure: “In the first five minutes we made two poor decisions and they countered us, but after that, we dominated possession and created chances.”
Liverpool fans were left celebrating not just the goals, but also the undeniable chemistry and fun among the squad. When you’ve got Nunez and Robertson on the sidelines bringing the banter, even the tense moments can turn into pure joy.
