Liverpool defender Ibrahima Konate continued his fine goalscoring form on Saturday – and Reds target Christopher Nkunku has hailed his celebration.

The Frenchman then scored against Benfica once again just a matter of days ago as Liverpool reached the Champions League semi-finals.

Liverpool faced Manchester City in the FA Cup semi-finals at Wembley. Konate got the scoring started by scoring a towering header.

Liverpool once again claimed a victory, beating City 3-2 to reach the FA Cup final.

That’s three goals in his last three games for Konate – one more than his entire tally with former club RB Leipzig!
