Alisson Becker's wife shares adorable footage of son watching Liverpool goalkeeper at Anfield

Liverpool's 6-0 trashing of Leeds United on Wednesday night was enough to get even the most time-served supporter up off their seat, but one very young fan found the whole experience to be a mesmerising one.

Doubles from Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane, complimented by efforts from Joel Matip and Virgil van Dijk, secured a ruthless victory for Jurgen Klopp's side, which now puts the Reds just three points behind Manchester City in the Premier League title race.

But perhaps it was the anticipation of a clean sheet from dad at the other end that got goalkeeper Alisson Becker's son so excited at the start of the match.

The Brazilian international's wife, Natalia Becker, shared a video clip via her Instagram page, showing the couple's young son lapping up the traditional rendition of You'll Never Walk Alone before the start of the contest.

Perhaps it was the lure of the floodlights that got the youngster fired up for a mid-week Liverpool night match.

The adorable video footage will perhaps bring back fond memories to supporters of their first ever games or taking sons and daughters for the first time.

It's safe to assume that Becker Junior got to stay up well past his normal bedtime, but if this is the type of luck he can bring to the Reds when it comes to results, perhaps he should be allowed to stay up late more often.

Liverpool supporters will be hoping that Alisson's son will make the trip to Wembley on Sunday when The Reds face Chelsea in the Carabao Cup Final. Another 6-0 win would do very nicely.
