What's the story?
As mentioned, the Liverpool star was the talk of social media on Sunday night as fans were left stunned at his headed effort against the Baggies.
Level at 1-1 deep in stoppage time and with Liverpool winning a corner in what was the last kick of the game, the Brazilian shot-stopper was then encouraged by the team to join the rest of his teammates in the opposition box.
Alisson's glancing header had manager Jurgen Klopp in disbelief, who could only but smile at what he just witnessed as the Liverpool players were beside themselves in celebration.

That being said, In 2016, Oscarine goalkeeper scored one of the greatest goals in PSL history when his bicycle kick against Orlando Pirates earned him a 2017 Puskas nomination.
While he may not have won the accolade, the goalkeeper did receive high praises from many professional footballers at the event, including that of Cristiano Ronaldo who mentioned that he would pick Oscarine's goal as the most spectacular.
