First De Gea and now Alisson Becker. Goalkeepers have not been performing well in the 2023 edition of the FA Cup. This Saturday, Liverpool hosted Wolverhampton at Anfield and the Brazilian goalkeeper had a blunder that cost Gonçalo Guedes a goal.
The game was 0-0, but in the 25th minute, Wolverhampton had a chance to open the scoring but it was all at the feet of Becker. The goalkeeper controlled the ball well and after trying to clear the ball, Gonçalo Guedes anticipated and after bouncing the ball to him, he sent it into the back of the net to open the scoring.

Late on, Julen Lopetegui was in persistent denial as the linesman raised his flag to disallow Toti's 3-2, with Wolverhampton briefly feeling their way through to the next round of the FA Cup and Liverpool on the brink of another failure, until VAR confirmed referee Andy Madley's decision amid the controversy that sustained the 2-2 draw at Anfield.
There will be a play-off on another stage, at Molineux Stadium, with the unease that must mean for Liverpool, a team not at their best, who only functioned in sporadic bursts, survived because they have definite individuals at their disposal and were placated by Lopetegui's plan, which has revitalised Wolves, ahead in the 26th minute.
Alisson's miss was unbelievable. Also understandable in the over-exposure of goalkeepers to playing with their feet in today's football. On a ball out, after a pass from Thiago Alcántara, who recovered a ball he had lost seconds earlier in a dangerous position, the Brazilian international goalkeeper controlled, looked, played.... And gave it to Guedes.
