Following Liverpool‘s stunning victory against Newcastle United on Sunday, social media flooded with clips of Jurgen Klopp ’emulating’ Marcus Rashford‘s iconic goal celebration. Netizens took to social media to share their views on Klopp’s animated celebration near the touchline.

Liverpool captain Virgil Van Dijk saw red in the 28th minute as he tripped Newcastle striker Alexander Isak who was through on goal. While some say that the red card is ‘too harsh’, others believe it is ‘biased’ from the referee. The decision is being debated furiously among fans. Meanwhile, the Dutch player has been handed a one-match ban and will miss the next match against Aston Villa on the 3rd of September.

Newcastle assistant coach Jason Tindall was seen shushing Klopp after the home side went 1-0 up and the Reds’ skipper was sent off. But, the German coach had the last laugh. As two late goals from the Uruguayan striker Darwin Nunez saw 10-men Liverpool take home all the 3 points.

Now, Liverpool sit 4th on the table with 7 points from 3 games. However, with back-to-back defeats, Eddie Howe has a lot of thinking to do.

Darwin Nunez was the difference against Newcastle United with 2 goals in the closing 12 minutes. Following Anthony Gordon‘s goal and a Van Dijk red card, Liverpool were chasing shadows until Nunez was substituted in the last 15 minutes of the game. The Uruguayan striker showed his ruthlessness in front of the goal with two amazing finishes. Making him Kop’s cult hero after the heroics.

Fans who watched the game will acknowledge the Uruguayan’s effect since he was substituted. Having been trolled last season for poor finishing, these two goals are a perfect reply from him. Finally, the fans feel that Nunez is back to being a lethal finisher. Liverpool will be expecting more of the same from their big-money striker.
