Watch Luis Diaz Score Incredible Pre-Season Goal In Liverpool Win Over Darmstadt

Liverpool recorded a 3-1 win in their final pre-season friendly of the summer by beating Bundesliga side Darmstadt on Monday.

Mohamed Salah and Diogo Jota fired the Reds into an early 2-0 lead before Mathias Honsak pulled a goal back for Darmstadt in the 10th minute.

The goal of the game then arrived just before the hour-mark courtesy of an incredible finish from Luis Diaz.

The Colombia international connected with a Dominik Szoboszlai corner kick by aiming a remarkable mid-air flick into the net - via the crossbar - using the outside of his weaker right foot.

Monday's game took place in front of 19,000 fans at Deepdale, home of Preston North End.

Liverpool won three of their five pre-season games this summer. Monday's win followed a 4-2 victory over Karlsruher and a 4-0 thrashing of Leicester.

The Reds also drew 4-4 with Greuther Furth and lost 4-3 to Bayern Munich.

Jurgen Klopp's side will start the new Premier League season with an away game at Chelsea on Sunday.
