In Liverpool’s 0-3 defeat at the hands of Atalanta in the quarterfinals of the first leg of the 2023/24 Europa League, striker Darwin Nunez of the home team had a very good opportunity to open the score but he unfortunately missed it. Just because of this, the Uruguayan striker has received countless “criticisms” on social networks.

In the 15th minute of the above match between Liverpool and Atalanta, Curtis Jones made an extremely smart pass to help Nunez escape and face the away team’s goalkeeper.

However, after skillfully breaking the offside trap, Nunez lobbed the ball wide of Atalanta’s goal. The score was still 0-0 and if Nunez scored, it could have been team’s turning point.

Commenting on Nunez’s handling, a Twitter account gave the opinion: “Nunez is always the same. He never changes to make himself better. This is not an attack, I’m just saying. Simply sharing the truth about this player.”

Another person did not hesitate to say directly: “What the hell am I watching? It seems like Nunez doesn’t know what he’s going to do on the field.”

A third person said: “I really can’t understand why Nunez gave the ball out when he was in such a favorable situation. What a disaster.”

A fourth person criticized harshly: “Sorry guys, but I have to say Nunez is so stupid it’s unbelievable. He can almost never do the right thing. I don’t understand why coach Klopp can coach this player.”
