Alisson Becker Explains How He Made That Famous Save Against Napoli During UCL Group Stages

Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker has shed some light on his vital save against S.S.C. Napoli during last season's Champions League group stages.

The Reds were taking a 1-0 lead into added time at the end of the match and needed to hold on to progress into the knockout stages of the Champions League, but it looked like they would be held to a devastating draw when Arkadiusz Milik had a free shot at goal from six yards out in the 91st minute.

Alisson somehow made an iconic save to deny the Poland international and it acted as a springboard which eventually saw Liverpool crowned as the Champions League winners some six months later.
