Darwin Nunez is compared to one of the Premier League's stars

The FIFA break left some Premier League players with good individual performances, for example Darwin Núñez, Liverpool FC striker who scored for Uruguay, as did his direct rival in the goalscoring charts Erling Haaland, who scored for Norway before rejoining Manchester City.

For former Ireland captain and Liverpool FC player Robbie Keane, it is impossible to compare Nunez and Halland at the moment, as both have not played the same amount of games in the current Premier League campaign. Remember that the Charrúa had a three-match ban, while the Norwegian has played every league game for City up to this term.

Through the interview made by Goal's English journalist Neil Jones, Keane talks about the patience that I should have to the Uruguayan crack, as he believes he can give a better result than demonstrated before with Benfica of Portugal. "It's a bit unfair, but they've definitely paid more attention to him. Because Haaland has done well, the focus is on Nunez.

Keane added that in this comparison of Premier League stars, the physical difference between the two strikers must be taken into account. "They are different players who, according to their style of play, are in different situations and because of that, you can't always compare them, but yes, the criticism has killed Núnez. Both have earned a lot of money, but only one is flying at the moment".

<strong>Robbie Keane sees comparisons between Nunez and Haaland as overblown </strong>

For the Red's star, the South American star was active in both games, clocking up 90 minutes in the defeat to Iran, where he had three chances on goal with a combined 52 touches. His revenge was soon to come in the Uruguayan 2-0 win over Canada, where he played 61 minutes in both attacking and defensive duties. Matches that Klopp and his coaching staff followed closely.
