Liverpool's Brazilian international Alisson Becker has admitted that he made a mistake that led to the goal scored by Algeria winger Rachid Ghezzal in the second half of their Premier League clash against Leicester City at the King Power Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

Moments after coming off the bench, Nigeria international Kelechi Iheanacho stole possession from the goalkeeper and the striker's cut-back was finished off by Ghezzal.

Alisson Becker, who posted three shutouts in his first three games in the English topflight, has vowed not to repeat the same mistake in subsequent matches.

''I am angry that I made a mistake that put the team in a difficult situation,'' the Brazil international told ESPN Brasil, according to Liverpool's official website.

''When one person makes a mistake, it affects everyone and everyone fought back together. We have to improve still but the result is what matters at the moment.

''It was bad judgement, I made a mistake reading the play. I didn’t get a very good pass [and] we talked about that in the dressing room and I spoke to Virgil. It wasn’t a good pass but I could have just kicked it long.

''I wanted to keep playing and keep the possession [and] now everyone is going to analyse that. I’m not going to be stupid and make the same mistake. We have to learn from our mistakes.''

Despite the absence of Jamie Vardy, Iheanacho started on the bench against Liverpool and his introduction just after the hour mark changed the game.
