Colombians say same thing about Luis Diaz after Liverpool FA Cup win over Chelsea

Colombians were all saying the same thing about Luis Diaz as Liverpool won the FA Cup final on penalties.

Looking for their second title this season, Liverpool took on Chelsea at Wembley. As soon as the match started, Diaz made an instant impact.

He duelled with Reece James and by the eighth minute, he already had a shot on target. Diaz continued on relentlessly, attempting a further five shots at goal.

In the 98th minute, Diaz was subbed for Roberto Firmino, but many praised his performance and heralded him as the best player on the pitch.

This was also the case in Colombia, with fans in the South American country all saying the same. Colombian actor Lincoln Palomeque, who has four million followers, tweeted: "Que crack @LuisFDiaz19."
