This season, Liverpool's striker Darwin Nunes has been in hot form, attacking for the team, but his shooting accuracy has always been his "Achilles heel". However, the Uruguayan star has not remained unchanged. In the EFL Cup match against Fulham, he came on as a substitute and provided a double assist, becoming the "Reds' assist king" with his 10th assist this season. What's more, he has scored 7 times as a substitute this season, making him the perfect representative of the team's "substitute killer"!
It's no secret that Dawuniunis has a poor shot on goal, even as a substitute against Fulham, he had 4 shots on goal and 12 touches in the opposition box, with an expected goal value (xG) of 0.76 goals, but unfortunately he was unable to score, continuing his "loser" style of play. However, Dawuniunis became the key to victory with two assists. In addition to becoming the team's assist leader, Liverpool has 30 goals made by substitutes this season, and he alone accounted for seven of them, three of which were goals and four of which were assists, making him a key element of the team's strong backbone.
