Luis Diaz needed Alexis Mac Allister's help to translate it into English | Football Curiosities
Liverpool left an impressive mark at home to Brentford 2-0 in the second round of the English Premier League, where Arne Slot's team had one of the most prominent players, Colombian striker Luis Diaz, who scored the first goal and assisted in the second. A goal for the 'Reds'.
Away from the high level that the Colombian presented on the field, Luis Diaz had to go to the media after the match, where he had to answer the questions of the journalist who asked him fluently in the distinctive British accent of England.
But the Colombian striker, faced with the impossibility of answering the journalist in English, had to turn to his Liverpool teammate, Alexis Mac Allister, to help him translate. It is a very comical moment, but at the same time worrying, considering that Luis Diaz has been in England for two and a half years.
The truth is that Mac Allister, who is fluent in the language, knew how to explain to the journalist what Lucho Díaz ended up highlighting about the Colombian's first goal against Brentford.
Mac Allister, Lucho's translator.
*Interestingly what Mac says is that they have to overcome the vice of being too direct (Club) to be more patient (Slot). Luisito's party character. pic.twitter.com/paLaNAlY0o

Now, after this victory for Liverpool, which raised its score to 6 points in the English Premier League, it must prepare next week against Manchester United at Old Trafford, in one of the most important matches in English football.
This is clearly a duel of utmost importance for Luis Díaz, also remembering that the double date of the qualifiers with the Colombian national team is coming.
