You won't see a better defensive clearance all season! Ridiculous athleticism ???? pic.twitter.com/DvRJG3f8bs
The superstar’s shot was blocked but he managed to loop a header towards goal with a rebound. The header looked destined to hit the back of net, but Kyle Walker had other plans.
The former Tottenham star race back towards his goal-line and produced an acrobatic overhead kick clearance to deny Salah the chance of spectacularly winning the game for the Reds.
It’s highly unlikely that we’ll see an acrobatic last-ditch clearance again for some time. Walker’s athleticism is truly amazing.
