The Brazilian sustained a hamstring injury during the second half, forcing him to leave the pitch, and he was replaced by Vitezslav Jaros, making his debut appearance for Liverpool’s first team. The injury is particularly troubling as regular back-up keeper Caoimhin Kelleher was unavailable due to illness.
Initial reports indicate that Alisson’s injury is serious enough to potentially sideline him for the next four matches.
This is a significant blow for Liverpool, as they are at the top of the Premier League heading into the international break.
Alisson had already missed two games earlier this season due to a muscle issue, and this recurrence has sparked concerns that his absence could impact the club’s form, especially with key fixtures such as a match against Chelsea coming up after the break.
Liverpool manager Arne Slot is expected to provide further updates on Alison’s condition, but the team is likely to rely on Jaros if Kelleher remains Unavailable.
