LONDON — Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson was substituted after sustaining a fresh injury in Saturday’s Premier League match against Crystal Palace.

The Brazil international hurt himself when clearing the ball in the second half at Selhurst Park and had to leave the field in the 79th minute.

He looked frustrated and limped off to be replaced by Vitezslav Jaros. Alisson, who has only just returned after a muscle injury, was holding the back of his right leg on the sideline.

First-place Liverpool won 1-0 through Diogo Jota’s goal in the ninth minute.
