Video: Liverpool react to Chiesa’s skill with Italian word | OneFootball

Federico Chiesa made a substitute appearance in Liverpool’s 1-0 win over Real Madrid on Tuesday, and a piece of skill from the Italy international was shared by the Reds on X social media: ‘Bellissimo.’

Even if Chiesa was only introduced at minute 88 in Liverpool’s 1-0 win over Real Madrid on Tuesday, he had enough time to show his quality on the ball.

Liverpool delighted by Chiesa’s ability on the ball

The Reds shared on X social media a delightful move from the Italian, who controlled the ball received from a throw-in, juggled it and passed it to Mohamed Salah behind him with the outside of his foot.

Liverpool captioned the video with just a word, ‘Bellissimo’ and an Italian flag.

Chiesa was named as the Liverpool Player of the Month for September despite making mostly substitute appearances.
