“It doesn’t want to go in, brother.” You could forgive Darwin Nunez for feeling frustrated following Liverpool’s 2-0 victory over Rangers on Tuesday night. The Reds might have returned to winning ways but it wasn’t to be the Uruguayan’s night in front of goal.
The 23-year-old did impress in Jurgen Klopp’s new-look front four, along with Mohamed Salah, Diogo Jota and Luis Diaz, yet was repeatedly unable to find a way past Allan McGregor in the Rangers goal as his Anfield duck, while wearing Red at least, remains unbroken.
He'd register six shots against the Scottish giants on Tuesday night, more than any of his teammates and the same total as the whole Rangers squad combined. His joint-record total in a single match for the club, four hit the target, one was off-target and the other was blocked - no wonder he was caught on camera cursing his luck to Virgil van Dijk!
