The goalkeeper on an ‘almost perfect’ campaign, Manchester City and emotional calls home after the Champions League final

Alisson offers an alternative theory that explains the punishing standards behind Liverpool’s six-point advantage over Manchester City and his status as the finest goalkeeper in the world today.
