Moments like these add an extra layer of spice to big gamesâfans love it when players show a bit of personality. Did this moment fire up Liverpool even more in the match?
It was definitely a rough night for Richarlison, both physically and in terms of getting under Liverpoolâs skin. The Anfield crowd wasnât going to let him forget his history, and Van Dijk made sure to have some fun at his expense.
Despite the rivalry and the mind games, though, itâs always unfortunate to see a player leave the pitch injured. Hopefully, itâs nothing too serious, and heâs back soon. Did Spurs manage to put up much of a fight after he went off?
