Rio Ferdinand branded Roberto Firmino's reaction "brilliant" after Darwin Nunez's horrific miss in Liverpool's routine 3-0 win over Ajax on Wednesday evening.
The 23-year-old squandered an excellent opportunity to give Liverpool a two-goal lead on the stroke of half-time. A terrific team move ended with Firmino squaring the ball across the face of goal to Nunez, who struck the post when it looked harder to miss than score.
Following Nunez's blunder, Firmino turned around in bemusement, with his confusion at the miss even leading him to look towards the linesman. The Brazilian also threw his arms up in the air and seemed shocked with his team-mate, who has endured a mixed start to life at the Reds since his £85million move from Benfica.
