Liverpool Stroll to 3-0 Lead Against Bournemouth as Darwin Nunez Scores Stunner
Published 15:52 21 Sep 2024 GMT+1
Liverpool are back in the win column after a dominant first half against Bournemouth. The Reds took the lead after Luis Diaz scored twice in quick succession, and Darwin Nunez added a third with a spectacular goal on his weaker left foot.
The Uruguayan international picked up the ball on the right wing and cut inside, using his pace and skill to beat his defender. With a calm and composed finish, Nunez curled the ball into the top corner, leaving the Bournemouth goalkeeper with no chance.
"This is a stunner," said former England and Blackburn Rovers striker Chris Sutton on BBC Radio 5 Live. "Liverpool look dangerous when they bypass Bournemouth’s midfield, Nunez and Salah link up really well. Nunez elects to shoot left-footed and it is a stunning finish, a curler. Liverpool are cruising. This could be a cricket score, the way this is going."
The win is a welcome response to Liverpool’s defeat to Nottingham Forest last weekend and a 3-1 Champions League victory over AC Milan in midweek. With this dominant performance, the Reds will be looking to continue their winning ways in the Premier League.
