Bournemouth vs Liverpool: Divock Origi nets exquisite strike from ridiculous angle to double Reds’ lead, Twitter reacts
DIVOCK ORIGI doubled Liverpool’s lead over Bournemouth with a spectacular strike from an outrageous angle.
The Belgian forward, 21, was only playing thanks to the injury sustained by Philippe Coutinho against Sunderland a week ago.

Yet Origi quashed the argument that Liverpool may miss their ‘Little Magician’ by sublimely converting their second of the game, just two minutes after Sadio Mane took advantage of the Reds’ early pressure to give the visitors an early lead.

After Mane had won the ball deep in Liverpool’s half, captain Jordan Henderson played a sublime ball down the line to Origi, who superbly rounded Artur Boruc, who rather hastily rushed off his line to convert from the tightest of angles.
To make it even more difficult, Origi struck it with his right foot, meaning the natural curl of the ball, instantly narrowed the angle even further.
