Gary Lineker on Darwin Nunez for Liverpool vs Fulham
Make an impact
We think Darwin Nunez played well for Liverpool after coming on and made the impact manager Jurgen Klopp would have expected of him.
Nunez is number 9 and he did his job perfectly by scoring an important goal.
The forward also played his part in the FA Community Shield against Manchester City after coming on as a substitute and was involved in two of the goals scored by Liverpool in that particular game.
It was a disappointing result for Liverpool against Fulham today but Nunez did well.
