Arsenal star Aaron Ramsdale reveals what he would do if he repeats Alisson Liverpool heroics

Only six goalkeepers have managed to accomplish the seemingly impossible and score a goal in Premier League history. The number one's main priority is keeping the ball out of the back of his net, but on rare occasions, they find themselves adding themselves to the scoresheet.

Most recently, Alisson headed in a vital header for Liverpool at West Bromwich Albion to hand Jurgen Klopp's side a vital three points in their quest for a top-four finish. The goalkeeper had come up for a corner in the fifth minute of stoppage time and directed Trent Alexander-Arnold's delivery into the far corner.

Alisson's goal was the first in the Premier League since Asmir Begovic's in 2013 for Stoke City, but with a further emphasis now on goalkeepers using their feet more, the possibility of more surprise goals remains present.
