Fans all say the same thing about ‘hilariously random’ Darwin Nunez after Liverpool ace dummies ball instead of shooting


FANS have all been left saying the same thing about Darwin Nunez after he was involved in another comedic incident.

In Liverpool’s clash against Aston Villa, Nunez was put through on goal but opted to dummy the ball rather than take a shot on himself.

With the score still 0-0 at the time, and with just the goalkeeper to beat, the Nunez decision was labelled as “hilariously random.”

Nunez, 23, is often the source of debate due to his, at times, lacklustre finishing but equally superb ability to sniff out chances.

And following his bizarre play against Villa, viewers were left both frustrated and fascinated by him.

One user said: “Darwin Nunez is the most interesting footballer I’ve ever seen.

“His decision making is so absolutely hilariously random it’s like there’s someone up there spinning a wheel of fortune each time Liverpool go on the attack.”

A second user suggested: “There are voices in Darwin Nuñez’s head that pipe up everytime he’s through on goal.”

A third said: “Darwin Nunez genuinely trying not to score at this point.”

Following a similar play later on, Nunez then fluffed his contact as he tried to shoot towards goal, instead seeing the ball spin behind him.

One user added: “Nunez is a meme machine.”

While another declared: “funniest footballer ever.”

Mohamed Salah eventually opened the scoring for Liverpool after a superbly worked sequence, before Virgil van Dijk doubled the lead.

They had created a host of chances in between the goals, with many of the best ones falling to Nunez.

If Jurgen Klopp’s side can hold onto all three points then they will close the gap to the top four to just five points and place themselves right on the tails of Manchester United in fifth.
