The game was intense, with both teams scoring two goals each at St. James' Park. But in the 90th minute, Nguhoma came off the bench to replace Cody Gakpo and scored a stunning goal that sent the Liverpool fans into celebration.
This achievement made Nguhoma the youngest player to score a goal for Liverpool in the Premier League and the fourth youngest scorer in English top-flight history at 16 years and 361 days.
Liverpool's coach, Arne Slot, praised Nguhoma's performance, saying, "It was a great goal for a 16-year-old. Rio can finish so well for his age." He also noted that Nguhoma's confidence on the field was impressive, adding, "How firm his shot was, you don't see this often with a 16-year-old."
