The 2-0 victory of Liverpool over Real Madrid in the Champions League has sent fans into a frenzy, and none more so than about the performance of Alexis Mac Allister. The Argentine midfielder played a stellar game, combining well with his teammates and creating key opportunities. Fans on social media were ecstatic about his performance, with many hailing him as a “bargain of the century” and describing him as a midfield “Maestro”. Mac Allister’s numbers were impressive, with 73 touches, 92% accurate passes, and two key passes. He also created two big chances for his teammates and was named Man of the Match by SofaScore.
Fans took to Twitter, praising his performance and lamenting the fact that some people don’t rate him as highly as they do. One fan wrote, “Mac Allister cost us £35 million British pounds. Bargain of the f***ng century.” Another tweeted, “I’ll never understand people who don’t rate Mac Allister.” A third fan chimed in, “Losing out on Jude for Mac Allister and Gravenberch was a blessing in disguise.” The win was a significant one for Liverpool, who had not beaten Real Madrid in the Champions League since 2009. The victory ended an eight-game winless run against the Spanish giants, who had previously won seven and drawn one of the previous eight meetings.
Liverpool manager Arne Slot hailed the win, saying it was “special” to beat a team of Real Madrid’s caliber. Mac Allister’s performance was a key factor in the win, and his statistics were impressive. He played with a high level of accuracy, completing 92% of his passes, and created key opportunities for his teammates. He also showed his defensive capabilities, making two key passes and blocking a shot to prevent a Real Madrid goal. The victory has given Liverpool a significant boost in their Champions League campaign, and fans are eager to see how the team will perform in upcoming matches.
The Reds will return to Premier League action against a struggling Manchester City on Sunday, December 1, while Real Madrid will face Getafe in LaLiga on the same day.
