Diogo Jota punctuated a dominant early spell for the Reds on Wednesday night when he bounded into the box and stroked in a finish midway through the first half. Conor Bradley rasped in his first senior goal for the club just before an interval that arrived soon after Darwin Nunez had sent a penalty against the post. Jürgen Klopp’s side maintained their control in the second half and increased their advantage when Dominik Szoboszlai nodded in Bradley’s Kop-end cross on 65. Christopher Nkunku soon made a mark on the scoresheet for the visitors, but it proved mere consolation as Luis…
The 20-year-old produced a superb first-half strike as Jürgen Klopp’s side maintained their five-point lead at the top of the Premier League with an excellent 4-1 victory on Wednesday. Bradley also finished the game with two assists, creating for Diogo Jota and Dominik Szoboszlai, and received a standing ovation when he was withdrawn in the second half. Afterwards, he spoke to TNT Sports about his perfect evening. “It’s a very proud moment obviously,” Bradley said of his first Liverpool goal. “It’s something I’ve dreamed of for a long time. “I just feel like I’m in a dream. It’s unbelievable. I’m…
The Reds regained a five-point advantage at the top of the division on Wednesday night, scoring twice in each half at Anfield. Diogo Jota got the ball rolling and Conor Bradley followed up with an excellent first goal for the club. After the break, Dominik Szoboszlai and Luis Diaz struck either side of a Christopher Nkunku consolation for the Blues. Read on for Klopp’s full verdict on the game, Bradley’s transition into the team, Nunez – who hit the woodwork four times on the evening – and more at his post-match press conference… On what stood out for him on…
As he has already displayed throughout his short Liverpool career, Wataru Endo shone for Japan at the Asian Cup today, in what was at times a tough contest against a Bahrain side whose physical presence threatened to make things difficult. The Reds’ No.3 was effective in orchestrating Japan attacks as much as he was equally effective in helping to shield their defence in the holding midfield role that he had made his own at club level before his departure for international duty. The stats certainly backed up the Samurai Blue captain’s player-of-the-match performance: a 90% passing accuracy (65/72 passes), combined…
Having denied them the post-match show on Sunday, there was no way Jurgen Klopp was going to ignore the Kop once more. Certainly not after this. After smiting aside Chelsea with the most convincing display of the season so far, Klopp felt duty-bound to follow it up with those trademark fist bumps that stir the soul of the Liverpool faithful. How could he not? The last few days have been an emotional time for a fanbase still reeling from the bombshell announcement their manager will be walking away from the club he has transformed over much of the last decade.…
Liverpool coasted to a comfortable 4-1 victory over Chelsea in the Premier League on Wednesday. Diogo Jota bundled past a couple of opposition defenders and finished in trademark style to put the Reds a goal up. That was followed up by Conor Bradley’s first goal for the Reds, as he fired in from the edge of the area after a surging run. Bradley was involved again for the third, as his cross was headed home by Dominik Szoboszlai. Chelsea did get one back, although Luis Diaz was able to extend the Reds’ advantage again after turning in Darwin Nunez’s cross.…
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has already shared his thoughts on a possible move for Kylian Mbappe. The France captain has entered the last six months of his contract with Paris Saint-Germain and has perennially been linked with a move away from the Ligue 1 champions. Real Madrid has often been touted as Mbappe’s next destination, while Liverpool have also been consistently linked with an interest in the 25-year-old. It took little time for those familiar headlines to appear at the start of the January transfer window, with Le Parisien recently caliming that Liverpool ‘dream’ of signing Mbappe, though the finances…
Jurgen Klopp’s reaction to Darwin Nunez’s penalty miss for Liverpool against Chelsea was spotted by the TV cameras. The Reds were hosting Chelsea at Anfield in the Premier League clash on Wednesday night. Liverpool went into the game one point clear at the top of the table after Arsenal defeated Nottingham Forest 24 hours earlier. Liverpool took a 2-0 lead into the half-time break at Anfield, as Klopp’s team took control of the game. A Diogo Jota strike and Conor Bradley’s first goal for the club gave the Reds a two-goal advantage. There was the chance for a third goal before half-time when…
Liverpool star Mohamed Salah has given supporters hope of a speedy return to the squad on Wednesday afternoon. The Egyptian star posted a picture of himself running at Melwood. Salah has been out of action since returning early from AFCON. Elsewhere, Virgil van Dijk has attempted to end speculation surrounding his future after his comments following Jurgen Klopp’s announcement last week. Fluminense has also namechecked Liverpool as one of the teams who submitted an offer for Andre Trindade last year.
A goal and two assists from right-back and Trent Alexander-Arnold not even on the pitch, are you joking?! “There’s only one Conor Bradley” rang out around Anfield several times across the course of the game and not without reason, the defender was sensational in his aggressive stance in deep areas and another marauding, exciting outlet going forward. He set up the first with a typical surge forward and accurate pass infield, then went one better himself by blazing forward into space and striking a magnificent hit across the ‘keeper and into the bottom corner – his first senior Reds goal at age 20,…
