The match saw Liverpool trailing 2-1 in the 69th minute, with Isak being presented with a free shot. However, the Newcastle forward missed the opportunity with his weaker left foot, with the shot going wide of the goal. The Newcastle fans, who had initially booed Isak, surprisingly celebrated the missed shot as if it were a goal, with many jumping up from their seats in joy.
The reaction from the fans was a stark contrast to the initial jeers, which had greeted Isak before the match. The Swedish forward had been the subject of much speculation in the transfer market over the summer, with many Newcastle fans expressing their disappointment at his signing. However, it seems that Isak's performance on the pitch has won over some of the fans, at least for now.
The match ended with Liverpool losing 2-1, but the focus will be on Isak's performance and the fans' reaction to his missed shot. The Swedish forward will be looking to build on this display and win over the rest of the fans in the coming weeks.
