Alisson’s Special Records in the Merseyside Derby

Alisson Becker


DBasia.news –  The Merseyside Derby between Everton against Liverpool in Week 29 of the Premier League which took place at Goodison Park, Sunday (3/3) evening WIB, ended with 0-0 score. Alisson Becker, Liverpool goalkeeper, made a special note from the match.

Liverpool finally stepped down from the top of the standings after only getting one point while visiting Everton’s headquarters. Now, Mohamed Salah and his friends are in second place with one point less than Manchester City.

Nevertheless, the match has more meaning for Alisson. Because at this time the goalkeeper has recorded 17 clean sheets in the Premier League on his debut season with Liverpool.

In the match against Everton, Alisson was also able to stem three kicks on target. He also performed brilliantly by failing several cross baits from Everton players.

Now, Alisson is only three clean sheets away from Pepe Reina’s most incisions. Reina set a record when he left Villarreal to Liverpool in the 2005-2006 season.

These records proves that Liverpool did not mistakenly bring Alisson . The Reds brought the goalkeeper from AS Roma after disbursing funds up to 62.5 million euros.

In fact, Alisson had become the most expensive goalkeeper in the world with that number. However, Kepa Arrizabalaga’s transfer to Chelsea have broken that record.

Alisson deserves to be labeled as one of the best goalkeepers in the world. This is true, the 26-year-old goalkeeper has 34 times defended the Brazilian national team. Alisson is still contradicting Liverpool until the end of June 2024.
