Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers believes Philippe Coutinho’s goal against Southampton could be a contender for goal of the season.

Coutinho smashed a shot into the top right hand corner of the net after only three minutes and Rodgers was full of praise.

“Young Phil has taken a touch and it was an incredible strike – it has got to be up there with Goal of the Season. It gave us a great start in the game.”

The result now means a cluster of teams are camped closely together in the race for a Champions League finish. 

“They are all big games for us at the moment, because of how we played at the beginning of the season,” Brendan Rodgers added, “But you see the confidence in the team and the desire that they have to win, coming to a team that has done exceptionally well this season.”
