Diogo Jota had a highly influential 45 minutes on the pitch against Leicester City, scoring in normal time and the eventual winner from the spot.
The Portuguese international displayed some elite mentality as he out psyched Kasper Schmeichel before scoring the winning pen and very much enjoyed celebrating in front of Brendan Rodgers’ men after Takumi Minamino’s equaliser.
Our No.20 has been in sublime form this season and he ensured to take to social media to share his celebratory thoughts with the fans.
The 25-year-old said: ‘I hope you enjoyed that as much as me 🤪 Merry Christmas Reds‘.
We all know that he certainly did enjoy the game and it’s great that Jurgen Klopp had so much trust in his potential impact, that he gave Mo Salah and Sadio Mane a full break from action.
The boss was proved right as the former Wolverhampton Wanderers attacker scored his 12th goal of what has been a memorable season thus far, for the Premier League’s second highest goal scorer.
