17 things we loved this weekend: Vinicius, Keane, TAA, Messi, Haaland

Planet Football • 29 Nov 2021

Chelsea’s 1-1 draw with Manchester United provided us with plenty of entertainment both on and off the pitch at Stamford Bridge.

Elsewhere, Palmeiras beat Flamengo 2-1 in the Copa Libertadores final and Erling Haaland showed Borussia Dortmund what they’ve been missing in recent weeks.

We’ve rounded up the best of the action from the weekend.

Roy Keane and Jamie Carragher

The two pundits were at their box office best after Man United v Chelsea.

You don't want to miss this… 😳🍿

Things got VERY heated between @Carra23 and Roy Keane as they discussed Cristiano Ronaldo's role at Man Utd 🤬 pic.twitter.com/kTOVv8OYZl

Neville certainly enjoyed watching the debate from home.

Trent Alexander-Arnold

This is a brilliant achievement for most players, let alone a defender.

Only Wayne Rooney (22y 200d) and Cesc Fabregas (21y 188d) have reached 40 #PL assists at a younger age than Trent Alexander-Arnold (23 years & 51 days)#LIVSOU pic.twitter.com/lRclSaqNKI

Diogo Jota

Unlike most players, Jota had a pretty good excuse for quitting a FIFA game.

Diogo Jota spent his morning playing a competitive FIFA 22 international qualifier. He had to leave the tournament early because he was playing Southampton at 3 p.m.

He scored after 97 seconds, hit a FIFA celebration, then added another goal in the first half 🎮 pic.twitter.com/ubhCz1Ry3e

Harry Kane

A brilliant gesture from the Tottenham captain.

Just been sent this tweet and absolutely gutted for you! For your commitment and to make up for the match being called off I’d like to invite you to a home game as my guest when you’re next in London 👍 https://t.co/wB3c8c40HN

Lionel Messi

After being criticised for his display against Manchester City, Messi had the perfect response.

45+2': 🅰️
79': 🅰️
90+1': 🅰️

Vinicius Junior

The Brazil international is in the form of his life this season.

OH MY WORD! 😱😱

What a goal from Vinicius Jr and a massive statement from Real Madrid against a title rival ⚪ pic.twitter.com/4fUnBAusIs

Erling Haaland

That’s now 50 goals in 50 Bundesliga games for Haaland.

Not everyone was glad to see Haaland back from injury.

Luis Diaz

There’s something special about a shot that hits the post before going in.

What a strike from Porto's Luis Diaz! 😳

Ramos made his long-awaited debut for PSG and didn’t disappoint.

A wonderful piece of shithousery in the Copa Libertadores final.

Dries Mertens

There was nothing the goalkeeper could do about this strike.

Edgar Barreto

Is somebody cutting onions?

Edgar Barreto scored to break Robin van Persie's record for longest time between goals in the Eredivisie.

It was only right he went to celebrate with his son who was ball boy at the time ❤️🥺

Ben Halloran

There’s never a bad way to score a late equaliser but this was pretty special.

An equaliser in the 90th minute 🤯

Ben Halloran intercepts and chips into the bottom corner 😎

A lovely finish! pic.twitter.com/O4rmyUfWen

A little bit of snow was never going to stop the Burnley manager.
