If someone had conducted a poll among Reds fans before Liverpool's away game against Brentford and asked who would bring them victory, it's unlikely that a large number of supporters would have mentioned the name. Darwin Nunez.

The Uruguayan has been synonymous with failures in his tenure in the red jersey so far, and incredible ones at that, but in the 22nd round of the Premier League, he made himself celebrated in the city of the Beatles.

He entered the game midway through the second half at 0:0, and in the first and third minutes of stoppage time he decided the game - two goals, two reactions that show he has "that something" in him, launched Liverpool and helped them increase the gap over second-placed Arsenal.

Another South American has started working, a guy who has already grown into an Inter legend based on his numbers - Lautaro MartinezThe captain of the "Nera Azzurri" was the scorer against Empoli, scoring a goal for 1:0, which ended the torment of the current Italian champion and it is clear that the crisis is in the past, because this is the fourth goal for "Toru" in the last six games.

We present the players who marked the European football weekend:

THE GOALKEEPER

ATTACK

Martinez (Inter) - Inter would have had a hard time breaking through Empoli's defense if it weren't for the captain and his missile that he sent into the net at the beginning of the second half. Toro is once again a threat to the opposing defenses, having scored in four of the last six matches.
