'This is a problem', 'Ice cold' - Liverpool fans react to Alexis Mac Allister display in Argentina win over Brazil

Liverpool fans are in awe of Alexis Mac Allister’s “ice cold” performance for Argentina in their chaotic 1-0 victory over arch-rivals Brazil on Wednesday (22 November).

The £35million midfielder played the full 90 minutes at the Maracana Stadium to keep his nation at the top of the World Cup CONMEBOL qualification table.

The tumultuous affair ended with altercations between Brazilian police and fans which led to the Argentina stars attempting to calm the tensions.

As revealed by Football Insider (22 November), Mac Allister will join his South American teammates Darwin Nunez, Luis Diaz and Alisson on a chartered jet back to England to prepare for their Premier League showdown against Man City.

While some supporters aren’t quite convinced by Mac Allister based on his performances for his club, fans have taken to social media to praise his display in the eventful clash.

This fan has settled the GOAT debate – and it is not Mac Allister’s Ballon d’Or-winning teammate Lionel Messi.

This supporter simply dubbed the Argentine’s display as “magic”.

This supporter hailed the 24-year-old’s versatility while in action against the five-time World Cup winners.

One fan took the chance to one-up a Chelsea fan and claimed Enzo Fernandez, who played 70 minutes of the game, only played well thanks to Mac Allister.

One fan dubbed him his nation’s best player.

One fan admitted to celebrating Mac Allister’s Argentina going ahead but felt bad for his Liverpool teammate in the Brazil net.

Some fans just wanted the midfielder back and ready ahead of the City fixture and feared the consequences of Mac Allister playing the full 90 minutes of the game.
