John Terry was impressed with Luis Diaz' performance as Liverpool beat Everton 2-0 at Anfield. The Reds ensured they kept the pace with Manchester City in the title race with a crucial win over their Merseyside rivals.
Substitutes Diaz and Divock Origi changed the game as they entered the fray on 60 minutes, the hosts scored the opener just minutes after their arrival.
Origi was on the scoresheet with a huge header for the second goal, assisted by Diaz, who attempted a dramatic overhead kick. But that wasn't the only bit of impressive skill from the Colombia international.

Chelsea legend Terry shared a clip on social media of an incredible touch from Diaz shortly after the opening goal. He captioned the video: "What a player this man is."
Diaz joined Liverpool from Porto in January and has made a significant impact since his arrival. He's already racked up 18 appearances in all competitions, with four goals and three assists.
The winger continues to earn praise from pundits and former players, with ex-Red Jamie Carragher among those to single out Diaz in recent weeks. The former Liverpool defender told CBS Sports last week he's achieved what no other has at Anfield, putting Sadio Mane under pressure.
“He’s come in and he is the first person who has ever put Sadio Mane, in the last four or five years, under real pressure for his position,” Carragher said. “Sadio Mane has now, at times, moved to centre-forward because of the pressure from Diaz in that position."
