20 things we loved this weekend: Alisson, Lewandowski, Alli, Sancho
Liverpool‘s unlikely goalscoring hero led the news in England this weekend, while Luis Suarez stole the show for Atletico Madrid in Spain.
Then there was the small matter of Leicester City winning the FA Cup for the first time and Steven Gerrard’s Rangers completing an unbeaten league season in Scotland.
We’ve rounded up the best of the action on and off the field.
Alisson
Jurgen Klopp’s reaction summed up exactly how we felt.
On This Day in….nah fuck it.
Yesterday Alisson Becker did thisEnjoy every angle for 5 1/2 minutes
