Liverpool forward Darwin Nunez has pledged to keep working hard after his match-winning performance at Brentford in the Premier League on Saturday. Nunez scored

Liverpool couldn't score on any of their first 35 shots, but Darwin Nunez did so twice in stoppage time to beat Brentford 2-0 on Saturday.

Substitute Darwin Nunez's stoppage-time double gave Liverpool a 2-0 win at Brentford on Saturday, as the Premier League leaders left it late to record their first league win of 2025.

Arne Slot said Darwin Núñez's knack of scoring vital late goals for Liverpool is "nice to have" after the forward did so again to earn his team a crucial victory over Brentford on Saturday.

The hard-fought victory in west London came after successive draws to Manchester United and Nottingham Forest.

It was a tough day at the office but Liverpool got the win against Brentford and Arne Slot was quick to credit the role of one man in the game. Speaking about Darwin Nunez’s perseverance, the head coach said: “[A reporter] asked me similar things before the game about Darwin and I didn’t agree then that he’s not having a good season.
