[M]Alisson Ramses Becker, better known as Alisson Becker[/M] or just Alisson (Novo Hamburgo, 2 October 1992), is a Brazilian footballer of German origin who works as a goalkeeper.
|
Alisson Ramses Becker (born 2 October 1992), commonly known as Alisson, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Premier League club Liverpool and the Brazil national team. In 2019, he was named The Best FIFA Goalkeeper and was also the recipient of the inaugural Yashin Trophy.
Alisson began his career at Internacional, where he made over 100 appearances and won the Campeonato Gaúcho in each of his four seasons at the club. In 2016, he completed a €7.5 million transfer to Roma where he initially served as understudy to Wojciech Szczęsny before breaking into the starting line-up. In July 2018, Alisson signed for Liverpool for an initial fee of €62.5 million (£56 million), which could rise to €72 million (£66.8 million); a world record fee for a goalkeeper at the time. In his first season at the club he received the Premier League Golden Glove for most clean sheets in the league (21), and kept another clean sheet in the UEFA Champions League Final to help Liverpool win their sixth European Cup. The following season he kept a clean sheet in the final of the FIFA Club World Cup as the team won in extra time to clinch the trophy. He also played an integral part in Liverpool's 2019–20 Premier League title-winning effort, which ended the club's 30-year league title drought. On 16 May 2021, he also became the first goalkeeper to score a goal for Liverpool, as well as the first goalkeeper to score a matchwinner in a Premier League fixture, following a 95th minute-winning header against West Bromwich Albion.
Alisson represented Brazil at various youth levels before making his senior international debut in 2015 whereafter he represented the nation at the Copa América Centenario in 2016, the 2018 FIFA World Cup, and the 2019 and 2021 Copa América, winning the 2019 tournament while also being named its best goalkeeper.

The Finn pipped Mercedes team mate Lewis Hamilton to top spot by just 23 thousandths of a second, with the lead Ferrari of Sebastian Vettel three tenths down.
Bottas held the advantage through much of qualifying, although Hamilton did set the pace in Q2 thanks to having a second run on medium Pirellis.
Vettel beat Ferrari teammate Charles Leclerc to third by 0.017s, the duo jumping ahead of Max Verstappen on their final runs.
This was thanks to Verstappen failing to cross the line to start his lap before the chequered flag after becoming stuck in a queue of cars, with Vettel passing him at the hairpin late in the lap to ensure that he was able to.
That left Verstappen fifth, 0.542s off the pace and over eight tenths faster than Red Bull teammate Pierre Gasly, who was also unable to complete a second lap.
Daniel Ricciardo had only one fresh set of softs for Q3, but used it to beat Renault teammate Nico Hulkenberg to eighth by just 0.004s.
Neither Haas driver set a time in Q3, with both also failing to start their laps at the end of the session due to traffic.
Toro Rosso driver Daniil Kvyat failed to improve on his first-run time in Q2 having been seventh early on, meaning he was shuffled down to 11th and fastest of those eliminated in the first segment of qualifying.
Sergio Perez was just 0.063s further behind in the best of the Racing Point cars, just over a tenth faster than the Alfa Romeo of Kimi Raikkonen.
The Finn reported he lost some engine power over the radio after not improving by enough to make the top 10.

[M]Bottas[/M], who [M]had had a comfortable lead over Hamilton all weekend[/M], found himself under severe pressure in the top 10 shoot-out.
|
The Finn pipped Mercedes team mate Lewis Hamilton to top spot by just 23 thousandths of a second, with the lead Ferrari of Sebastian Vettel three tenths down.
Bottas held the advantage through much of qualifying, although Hamilton did set the pace in Q2 thanks to having a second run on medium Pirellis.
Vettel beat Ferrari teammate Charles Leclerc to third by 0.017s, the duo jumping ahead of Max Verstappen on their final runs.
This was thanks to Verstappen failing to cross the line to start his lap before the chequered flag after becoming stuck in a queue of cars, with Vettel passing him at the hairpin late in the lap to ensure that he was able to.
That left Verstappen fifth, 0.542s off the pace and over eight tenths faster than Red Bull teammate Pierre Gasly, who was also unable to complete a second lap.
Daniel Ricciardo had only one fresh set of softs for Q3, but used it to beat Renault teammate Nico Hulkenberg to eighth by just 0.004s.
Neither Haas driver set a time in Q3, with both also failing to start their laps at the end of the session due to traffic.
Toro Rosso driver Daniil Kvyat failed to improve on his first-run time in Q2 having been seventh early on, meaning he was shuffled down to 11th and fastest of those eliminated in the first segment of qualifying.
Sergio Perez was just 0.063s further behind in the best of the Racing Point cars, just over a tenth faster than the Alfa Romeo of Kimi Raikkonen.
The Finn reported he lost some engine power over the radio after not improving by enough to make the top 10.
