Liverpool fan snatches Alexander Isak's shirt from a child at Anfield before stewards force him to hand it back

A Liverpool supporter faced a wave of online outrage after grabbing Alexander Isak's No.9 shirt from a young fan at Anfield on Saturday, leaving the child visibly distraught. The incident was filmed shortly after Isak scored in Liverpool's 2-2 Premier League draw with Nottingham Forest. Stewards and fellow supporters stepped in quickly, forcing the culprit to hand the shirt back to the youngster it had been intended for. The video circulated widely, drawing anger from fans of clubs across the board.

After a pitchside interview, Isak had removed his shirt and headed toward the stands, plainly intending to give it to the delighted child waiting there.

'Grown man steaming a sweaty kit off a child — should be banned from entering Anfield again,' one X user wrote, summing up the widespread anger.

Liverpool sit 11th after two Premier League draws, with new manager Andoni Iraola still working to bed in his high-press style after last season's collapse from champions to fifth.
