Liverpool: Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker said victory and a clean sheet in a 1-0 Champions League win over Girona was the perfect way to make his comeback after a two-month injury layoff.
The Brazilian had been sidelined since suffering a hamstring injury in a 1-0 victory for the Premier League and Champions League leaders at Crystal Palace on October 5.
Arne Slot's men extended their 100 percent European record this season to six games in Spain on Tuesday, but needed the 32-year-old to make a number of vital saves.
"Great to be back," Alisson told Liverpoolfc.com. "Honestly, I was looking forward to this moment (after) nine weeks working so hard, you cannot believe.
"I wanted it to be perfect for us, and perfect means three points and a clean sheet for a goalkeeper.
