Despite being on an end-of-season break, Liverpool’s Luis Diaz was in action again this weekend.
The talented South American winger, who joined Jurgen Klopp’s Reds from Porto in January, featured in a match that celebrated the reopening of the Federico Serrano Soto Stadium in Riohacha, north Columbia.
Despite only being on the pitch for a short period, the Liverpool number 23 wasted no time in getting on the scoresheet.
