Swedish striker Alexander Isak, considered one of Liverpool's biggest transfers this summer, scored his first goal for his new team. His goal was scored in the FA Cup match against Southampton. In the match, which ended 2-1, Isak made an important contribution to his team as the scorer of the opening goal.
At the same time, the new head coach fielded the forward Arne Slot only in the first half. In the half-time, he replaced Isak with French striker Hugo Ekitique. This decision was assessed by many as a precautionary measure.
After the match, Isak commented on his condition in an interview with ITV:
"I feel good. My form is improving with each game. Of course, it's difficult to give a definitive answer now, as it depends on my physical condition and full preparation. But I'm confident that I can bring great benefit to the team and show even more results," Isak said.
For information, the 25-year-old Isak joined Liverpool from Newcastle in the summer for 145 million euros. This transfer was noted as one of the most controversial deals in Europe.
The Merseyside side's next match will be against Crystal Palace in the Premier League on September 27th. The fans are expecting more goals from Isak, as he is becoming increasingly successful with his new team.
