Alexis Mac Allister teases Ibrahima Konate over WONDER PASS

After making countless long ball attempts against Bournemouth yesterday, Ibrahima Konate managed to get one through to Luis Diaz who finished the chance off to score Liverpool's opener.

However, in a cheeky comment on Konate's Instagram post from the game, Alexis Mac Allister isn't quite convinced that the French international knew what he was doing when he made the pass.

While Bournemouth started brightly in the opening 10 minutes of the contest at Anfield, scoring a goal which was eventually deemed to be offside, Liverpool soon began to find their groove.

But, with new signing Kepa Arrizabalaga managing to keep out Liverpool's rush of goal attempts early on, it took a pass of genius to break open the game.

Across the game, Konate made eight accurate long balls from 13 attempts, with one of his opening efforts weighted perfectly to find Luis Diaz who ran in behind the Cherries' defence, dribbled past Kepa who had left his box to make a challenge but was left in no man's land, and made the finish to give the Reds the lead.

Konate was rightfully credited with the assist for the move but some of his teammates have had doubts over the degree to which he meant to do what resulted.

Ibrahima Konate - the ball playing centre back?

On Instagram after the match, Mac Allister commented "Good clearance bro" in response to Konate celebrating the win, clean sheet and his assist.

While Konate often clears the ball particularly well in times of danger, this pass was extraordinary, and one that his teammate Trent Alexander-Arnold would've been proud of.

His performance across the match marks a brilliant start to the season as the preferred centre-back to Jarrell Quansah.

Notching three clean sheets so far this season, and adding to his goal away at the San Siro against AC Milan last week, Konate is proving to be a key asset in this Liverpool side.
