Harvey Elliott and Darwin Nunez shone for their respective nations, but Andy Robertson’s forced departure due to a shoulder injury dealt Liverpool a blow. As nations around the world continued their respective efforts to qualify for the World Cup, European Championships, and Africa Cup of Nations, the international break officially began this week. Jurgen Klopp, the manager of the Reds, has never agreed with the Premier League’s congestion of international fixtures.
During the previous break, Alexis Mac Allister, Nunez, and Luis Diaz were among the tardy returnees to Anfield duty in preparation for their trip to Wolverhampton Wanderers. His suspicions will become even more obvious on Thursday following Robertson’s stumbling exit with his arm in an improvised sleeve following a collision with Spain goalkeeper Unai Simon. Elliott and Nunez, who both played significant roles for Uruguay and England’s under-21 team, provided cause for optimism among Liverpool’s international ambassadors. Although the Liverpool players have been busy representing their nations during the break, the countdown to Everton’s visit to Anfield continues. Robbie Robertson.
Andy Robertson’s forced exit from the match against Spain just before halftime on Thursday presented Liverpool with a potential international injury concern. After Unai Simon awkwardly landed on the full-back, the Scotland captain likely dislocated his shoulder. Steve Clarke, the manager of the Tartan Army, confirmed that Robertson will leave Scotland’s camp and head back to Liverpool. As they wait to find out if they will compete in the European Championships, they play a friendly against France on Tuesday. They could have qualified with a draw against Spain, but they were defeated controversially. Jarell Quansah as well as Harvey Elliott. The England under-21 team crushed Serbia under-21s 9-1 at Nottingham Forest’s City Ground, giving Harvey Elliott and Jarell Quansah a night to remember.
At the conclusion of each half during the rout, Elliott scored. He opened the scoring with a thunderbolt into the top left corner of the goal before picking the Serbian defender’s pockets and completing the scoring with a breakaway. After 77 minutes, Quansah took over for Jarrad Branthwaite, earning him his first Young Lions start. Luis Diaz & Darwin Nunez. In the Colombia vs. Uruguay match on Thursday, two of Liverpool’s attackers switched from being teammates to rivals. Both Darwin Nunez and Luis Diaz started in Barranquilla, but it was the Liverpool striker Nunez who garnered the most attention. His stoppage-time penalty denied the Colombians a home match. Just days after manager Nestor Lorenzo urged supporters to lower their expectations for the winger, Colombia scored goals through James Rodriguez and Mateus Uribe, but Diaz had a generally disappointing evening. Alexis MacAllister. If Alexis Mac Allister had any indications that his form might be slipping, he certainly didn’t display them in Argentina’s match against Paraguay. With a 1-0 victory and a goal from Nicolas Otamendi after three minutes, the defending World Cup champions climbed to the top of their qualifying division. For the entirety of the game, Mac Allister and Enzo Fernandez of Chelsea played in a two-man midfield for Lionel Scaloni’s team.
With a series of deft turns and defensive splitting passes, the 24-year-old put on a clinic in the middle of the field. Mac Allister had the highest percentage of dribbles and passes completed (78 of 82, or 95%) in the game.
