It was a stunning goal and one which saw Liverpool fans urge their club against letting him go this summer. One fan said: "He deserves a new contract and better salary.


Another added: "Quality player, if he played for someone else we’d be saying sign him. Fans shouldn’t be forcing him out." A third claimed: "The price tag just went up to 100 million."


A fourth joked: "And some of you want Anthony Gordon." A fifth added: "How people want Luis Díaz sold I will never know.



A sixth insisted: "Keep Lucho beyond this summer. He's still got it all." While a final fan concluded: "If we didn’t already have him, we would be in here calling for the club to sign him."


Unfortunately for Diaz, his side were unable to see out the win. Thiago Almada rescued a point for the hosts with nine minutes to play, leaving boss Lionel Scaloni cutting a relieved figure.


"I think the best thing about the team is their constant desire to try, which is always valuable," he said. "Beyond the fact that the opponent always makes things difficult for you, keep trying and looking to recover the ball quickly.


"Everything that is the desire in the divided ball, not giving up any for lost... From that point of view it is something to be very, very satisfied. it is something that in football today is very important.


"Especially if they are going to present us with games like this. We have to be alert, face them and I think that in that the team was present. Happy."
