Luis Diaz returns to hometown in Colombia for first time since becoming Liverpool hero

Liverpool forward Luis Diaz received a hero's welcome after returning to his hometown in Colombia.

Diaz, 25, has enjoyed a phenomenal 12 months for club and country. He helped Colombia reach the semi-finals of the Copa America last summer - sharing the Golden Boot with Lionel Messi - and earned a move to Liverpool thanks to his impressive form at Porto.

The 35-cap international scored 16 goals during the first half of the season before his move in January and has continued his good form, helping the Reds win the FA Cup and EFL Cup, finish second in the Premier League and reach the Champions League final.
