Liverpool’s Alisson Sees Stars in Brazil Game…
Knock, knock! Who’s there? Oh, just Alisson Becker returning to England with a head more bruised than a ripe avocado. After a head-on collision that would make even a dodgem car blush, Alisson is headed back to Liverpool for a medical check-up. In the meanwhile, his homeland’s fans are left with conflicted feelings after Brazil’s nail-biting 2-1 win over Colombia, clinched with Vinicius Junior’s buzzer-beater.
The Liverpool keeper must have been seeing little soccer balls circling his head like cartoon birdies after the field incident, which led to Colombia’s Davinson Sanchez taking a stretcher ride too! With Brazil’s upcoming tango against Argentina, they’ll have to march onto the pitch without their main man between the sticks. It’s safe to say Alisson won’t be dancing to the Samba in the upcoming showdown.
Brazil’s doc, Rodrigo Lasmar, assured everyone that Alisson’s noggin seems to be safely screwed on, promising tests that sound more like a science fair project than a medical protocol. No fainting spells or lost memory, so that’s good news—but his absence knocks a hole like a missing puzzle piece in Brazil’s lineup for now. We wish him a speedy recovery filled with tea, rest, and some soothing Beatles tunes!
