Darwin Nunez wasted a glorious chance to put Liverpool in front at Aston Villa(Image: Chris Brunskill/Fantasista/Getty Images)

Darwin Nunez has vowed not to throw in the towel at Liverpool after posting an emotional response following his glaring miss in Wednesday's 2-2 draw with Aston Villa.

Having arrived as a second-half substitute, Nunez put Dominik Szoboszlai's inviting pass across the face of goal over the bar from about six yards out with the score level after the hour mark.

It was a poor finish from the Uruguay international with head coach Arne Slot revealing in his Thursday morning press conference that he was unhappy with the work rate shown from his No.9 after the opportunity passed him by at Villa Park.

Nunez, inevitably, became a topic for debate online after the draw that took the Premier League leaders eight points clear of Arsenal, but the former Benfica star has taken to X to post a reply on Thursday morning.

Alongside an image of him celebrating one of his two match-winning goals against Brentford last month, Nunez wrote: "I was not the best three weeks ago nor am I the worst now.

Resilience!"

Nunez actually initially posted a more colourful tweet that was then deleted: "Two or three weeks ago, Darwin was the best, Darwin gave us three points, but yesterday I had the bad luck of missing a goal and now I am once again the "worst" and the loser.

"I don't fall, I get up and will never give up.

Resilience!"

Speaking about how Nunez reacted to the big miss on the night, Reds boss Slot said on Thursday morning: "It is not the chance but the 20 minutes afterwards that I will talk to Darwin about.

"Yes, I will tell him that [he still has a major part to play] as well.

And that is something we will talk about.

"I can accept every miss, especially from a player who scored two very important goals away at Brentford and that scored for us in the home game against Villa.

It is a chance and not 100% [certain] that it goes in.

"I can accept misses but what is harder for me to accept is his behaviour after the chance.
