Luis Diaz won the applause of Anfield Road and the praise of fans after the match against Manchester United. The match, valid for the 30th date of the Premier League, ended 4-0 in favor of Liverpool, where the Colombian scored a goal and gave an assist for Sadio Mané's scoring.
The guajiro is not only highlighted for what he does in the 90 minutes, a video of him went viral for his technique and mastery of the ball in the warm-up prior to the match against the 'Red Devils'. In the video, Díaz is seen together with Spaniard Thiago Alcántara showing his control of the ball and leaving some show of talent in the retina of the fans.
Precisely, Thiago Alcantara is one of the Liverpool players who has best received Luis Díaz, according to Jurgen Klopp's statements. The flyer helped the Colombian to join the group because of his ease with the language, and Firmino, Diego Jota and Fabinho have helped the 'guajiro' who dominates Portuguese by his time at Porto FC.
Luis Díaz also made news for extra football reasons due to his message on social media after the triumph that allowed Liverpool to be the leader temporarily. The Colombian was encouraged to write his first message in English to support his teammates and some images of his goal. The message translated “Together. Well done guys.”

In 17 games played with the Reds, Lucho has four goals in total. The other goal went to Benfica in Lisbon on 5 April for the first leg of the quarterfinals of the 2021/22 UEFA Champions League. On that day the Colombian striker also registered an assist for Klopp's team.
