The full picture

Alisson was reportedly angry with Jeremy Jacquet after Fenerbahce's equaliser in their Champions League match, where Jacquet turned his back to the ball and deflected Mason Greenwood's free-kick into the net. Ally McCoist, commentating for TNT Sports, observed Alisson's reaction and described him as 'absolutely livid'. McCoist justified Alisson's frustration, stating that Jacquet should have stood up and taken the shot. Jacquet's defensive error was seen as a contributing factor to the goal.

This was not the first time Alisson was seen being critical of Jacquet, as he was also frustrated with the defender during a match against Arsenal where Alisson's pass to Jacquet was intercepted, leading to a goal. Alisson has been inconsistent with his kicking throughout the season, and Jacquet's failure to get to the pass was seen as a potential area for improvement. However, Alisson was more directly involved in the Arsenal goal, having made the initial pass that was intercepted.

The incident during the Fenerbahce match highlighted a defensive lapse by Jacquet, who inadvertently obstructed Alisson's view and allowed the goal. McCoist criticised Jacquet's defensive stance, saying he was 'side on' and not 'fronted up' to the shot. The commentators debated whether Greenwood's shot would have gone in regardless, but agreed that Jacquet's positioning was not ideal. This defensive error was seen as a significant moment in the match.

How we label and update stories

Source context

Liverpool supporters were left pointing the finger at Alisson Becker on Sunday after the goalkeeper sold Jeremy Jacquet short with a pass which Arsenal ultimately scored from at Anfield. Alisson has been slightly shoddy with his kicking all season so far, but the Brazilian perhaps felt that Jacquet could have done more to get to his pass ahead of Martin Odegaard. And he was left annoyed with his centre-back once again on Wednesday evening, after seeing him turn his back and deflect Mason Greenwood’s free-kick into the net during the Champions League match against Fenerbahce.
