(Video) Luis Suarez and Darwin Nunez share post-match moment after Liverpool striker’s brace
There may have been eight years between Luis Suarez leaving Liverpool and Darwin Nunez coming to Anfield, and a 12-year age gap between the pair, but the careers of the two strikers seem firmly interwoven with one another.
Aside from both being all-action leaders of the forward line for the Reds, they are teammates for Uruguay and both featured in last night’s World Cup qualifying win over Bolivia.
The 24-year-old netted twice in his country’s 3-0 win, taking his tally to five goals in his last four caps (Transfermarkt), before being replaced by the ex-LFC and Barcelona veteran on 73 minutes.
After the final whistle in Montevideo, Suarez and Nunez exchanged a friendly few words with each other, the elder of the two wearing a beaming smile throughout as his younger compatriot took in the moment.
Liverpool fans can but imagine what a thrill it could’ve been if the pair’s Anfield careers overlapped and they were playing in the same Reds team every week…
