As cited by Goal on Twitter above, Neuer was quick to praise the Brazilian for the incredible goal.

For a player such as Neuer to praise Alisson as such is a massive compliment.

The Liverpool No.1 became the first player in the clubs history to score a goal.

Not only that, but he also became the first goalkeeper to score a header in the Premier League too.

Alisson has had a tough season along with the rest of the squad on the pitch, but also off of it.

The death of his father a few months back meant the goal became so much more for the Brazilian.
