Liverpool’s Alisson ready for biggest test of his life
LONDON, May 25 — Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker rates next week’s Champions League final against Tottenham as the biggest game of his life.
The Brazil international reached the Champions League semi-finals last season, only for Liverpool to beat his Roma team prior to his move to Anfield. “Once we finished the Premier League, there were 20 days to prepare the final,” Alisson told Liverpool’s website. Jurgen Klopp’s squad are coming to the end of a week-long training camp in Marbella, with the players going through a mini pre-season programme in order to retain their sharpness with a three-week spell between competitive matches.
