Trent Alexander Arnold's gesture that sent Anfield wild against Rangers

Liverpool have had a difficult start to the season in both the Premier League and Champions League as results have not been forthcoming for a team used to being in good form. In the midst of all this, a lot of blame has been heaped on Trent Alexander-Arnold. The right-back has been criticised for his defensive problems and has even lost his place in the England team, having been left out of the starting line-up for the last Nations League double-header.

However, despite this, coach Jürgen Klopp has given the player his full backing. This confidence was very well rewarded by the player in the start of the Champions League match against Rangers and he responded with a gem of a goal. He did it with one of his greatest weapons, his free-kick strike, when only 7 minutes of the match were played.

With the ideal profile for his right foot and from about 25 metres, the Briton hit it to perfection. The ball went over the wall and into the corner of the net. Scotland goalkeeper Allan McGregor stretched, but it was not enough to keep out a shot that was almost impossible to stop.
This was the move by Colombian midfielder Luis Diaz that set up Liverpool's second goal against Rangers in the Champions League. The game is now 2-0 at Anfield against a Scottish Rangers side who have not been able to find the net with Alfredo Morelos on the pitch.

It is worth noting that Liverpool had already taken the lead with a stunning goal from Alexander Arnold's free-kick. They went 1-0 up in the first half. In the second half, with Luis Diaz active, the second came through a powerful shot from midfielder Mohamed Salah. In the 53rd minute, Henderson sent a great pass to Luis Diaz, who was open on the left to send the typical diagonal inside.

He controlled the ball and accelerated and was brought down in the box by two Rangers defenders, Mohamed Salah was awarded a penalty. 2-0 to the Reds. Trent Alexander-Arnold has been one of the players most heavily criticised for Liverpool's shaky start but he repays Jürgen Klopp's faith with a tremendous Champions League goal.
