Goalkeeper Alisson has had a successful career with the Liverpool and celebrates another expressive mark. Last weekend, in the 1-0 triumph over Brentford, the number 1 left the field for the 100th time without conceding a goal for the club.
”I am happy to reach another expressive milestone here at Liverpool. It’s been more than 200 games with that shirt and, with the help of my teammates, we haven’t conceded a goal in almost half of them. It is very interesting data and shows that the work is being well done”, said the archer of Brazil in the last two editions of the World Cup.
The result in the match for the 35th round of the English Premier League made Liverpool reach 62 points and remain in fifth place, which, until now, guarantees the team in the next edition of the Europa League. The difference for Manchester United, placed fourth, and, today, first club in the Champions League classification zone, is one point.
“Our last victory was the sixth in a row in the Premier League and we are very focused and motivated to fight for the place in the Champions until the last round. And to continue our pursuit of that goal, we worked throughout this week thinking about Leicester, our next opponent. Another extremely complicated match,” he declared.
The Brentford duel was Alisson’s 16th clean sheet in 45 appearances this season, his 13th in the Premier League. The Brazilian archer is, alongside Nick Pope, from Newcastle, and Aaron Ramsdale, from Arsenal, the vice-leader in the ranking of the so-called “clean sheets” of the current edition of Inglês, behind only David de Gea, from Manchester United, with 15.
