LIVERPOOL STRIKER ON TARGET FOR COLOMBIA VS BOLIVIA

Posted in Uncategorized - April 14, 2022 - 0 Comment

Liverpool’s new £37million signing has impressed so far since from Porto in January – despite netting just twice so far – and he gave supporters further evidence of his class by getting his country off the mark in brilliant fashion during their World Cup qualifying clash. Colombia won 3-0 on the night, with Diaz’s first strike being followed up by Miguel Borja and Mateus Uribe to keep their slim hopes of reaching the 2022 World Cup in Qatar alive.

But it was Diaz who stole the show with his sensational effort, having cushioned down a long ball with ease from the left wing, taking a touch and sending his shot curling into the bottom right corner from an angle. Diaz helped end Colombia’s awful scoring drought that had seen them go seven qualifiers and 685 minutes with hitting the back of the net. Read more
