LIVERPOOL, England (AP) — Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker will miss Brazil's upcoming friendlies and likely the Premier League match against Manchester United after the international break because of the hamstring injury sustained in midweek. Alisson was hurt backtracking toward his goal before making a save during the second half of the 1-0 loss at Galatasaray in the Champions League on Tuesday. Liverpool manager Arne Slot already said Alisson would miss the league match at Chelsea on Saturday but confirmed Friday that the keeper wouldn't be joining up with Brazil for its friendlies against South Korea on Oct. 10 and Japan four days later.
