Liverpool midfielder Harvey Elliott has praised Newcastle United forward Alexander Isak for his performance during the Magpies' 2-1 defeat in August. Newcastle's club record signing marked his debut with the opening goal in the 38th minute, before having another ruled out for offside.
Roberto Firmino levelled proceedings just past the hour-mark and Fabio Carvalho clinched all three points for the Reds with a dramatic 98th minute winner. Elliott has been reflecting on Newcastle's previous visit to Anfield and was particularly impressed by Isak.
“This is the goal, it’s a great finish to be honest. He was lively that day as well. He was very good. It was very disappointing on our behalf,” Elliott told Liverpool's official YouTube channel.
