It’s an early goal for the Reds!
Van Dijk was completely unmarked in the Newcastle box as a Trent Alexander-Arnold corner was whipped in.
The big Dutchman simply strided towards the Magpies’ goal, took an agile leap, and nodded the ball into the turf and past the ‘keeper.
How can you leave VVD unmarked in the box like that?! Either way, the Reds are a goal to the good already and will be pushing for more.
Van Dijk could be eyeing more goals this evening if the Newcastle defenders are going to guard their goal like that!
