Ousmane Dembélé dazzles on the field

During a candid discussion on Sergio Agüero’s podcast, Liverpool midfielder Alexis Mac Allister reflected on his encounter with PSG forward Ousmane Dembélé in the first leg at the Parc des Princes. The battle was clearly won by the Frenchman.

« I never managed to catch him »

« After just a few minutes, he was flying across the pitch, and during a challenge for the ball, I stretched out my leg, and he nutmegged me. Then he approached me and said, ‘Brother, next time, don’t come so fast.’ I replied, ‘Don’t worry, next time I’ll catch your knee.’ The problem was, I never managed to catch him, » Mac Allister humorously recounted to his podcast host.
