There was a clear winner when Julian Alvarez came up against Darwin Nunez, and Liverpool may well have been keeping a close eye on that match-up ahead of the summer transfer window.

The pair went head-to-head as Uruguay hosted Argentina in a qualifier for the 2026 World Cup.

Alvarez has been linked with a summer move to Anfield, with Liverpool having already made a play for the former Manchester City star before his move to Atletico Madrid last summer.
