Tunnel cam captures Luis Suarez's unusual gesture that surprised Liverpool fans

mirror.co.uk, 5 November 2021, 12:37

Luis Suarez had a night to forget on his return to Anfield on Wednesday.

The Atletico Madrid forward, who was once a fan favourite on Merseyside, was jeered every time he received the ball against Liverpool in the Champions League.

Atletico were reduced to 10 men, beaten 2-0 and Suarez failed to see out the game with Diego Simeone hooking him on 59 minutes after a flat performance.

After the match, Suarez spent some time inside Anfield where we spoke with former Liverpool stars, Fernando Torres and Jose Enrique.

The striker also spoke with Liverpool legend Kenny Dalglish and even posed for a photograph alongside him and Torres, while the Scot held up an Atletico shirt.

Revealed: Tunnel footage suggests Solskjaer's comments on Scott McTominay are spot on

The footage of the moment was captured by LFCTV, who posted a round-up video of the night to YouTube.

But fans also spotted something interesting in the bag Suarez was holding.

It appeared that the Uruguay international was leaving Anfield with the Liverpool home, away and third kit after the game.

Whether the kits were for him to wear in his own time is not known.

But surprised fans have suggested that they may be for his children, as his daughter Delfina - an anagram of Anfield - was born in the UK and supposedly supports Liverpool.

Whatever the reason it seems Suarez still has a connection with his former club even if the love he once experienced from Reds fans has all but evaporated.

Ahead of Wednesday's Champions League clash, Suarez reflected on joining Liverpool in an interview with UEFA.

He said: "When I joined Liverpool, I remembered that this was a team I played with on the PlayStation. Any football player would want to play there - any child, any teenager.

"It was amazing to see the atmosphere at Anfield. Watching the Premier League games was incredible, as was the opportunity to make one of my dreams come true, to be there, to feel the people's love from the very first minute."
