Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson hailed the performance of Ibrahima Konate after Saturday's 1-1 draw with Arsenal.

Alisson admits they needed Konate at his best against an outstanding Arsenal attack.

Alisson told Liverpool's website: Ibou, everybody knows how strong he is, and he is improving season after season.

He's still young, as he is a big and strong man I think nobody realises that, but he is still young and he is improving, being a more mature player alongside Virgil.

"They did an amazing game, but not only them. They did an amazing game because everybody helped them to do their job.

But in the one-v-one situations against [Gabriel] Martinelli, against [Bukayo] Saka, against Gabriel Jesus, they are amazing strikers, and the way they defended was amazing."
