Youth Team/Cup

[Allan]

Full time - Liverpool 2 Derby 3

 

Much more open half in the second 45. The soft equaliser took the wind from our sails and then they got a couple of lucky bobbles/deflections in the build up to their other goals.

[alles ist gut]

One-way traffic so far, Camacho has had the ball in the net but the flag was up for offside.

[alles ist gut]

Halftime 0-0.

 

Only one team in it, but we haven’t converted the countless chances.

[alles ist gut]

Red Star have looked better in the second half, and  have the ball in the net in a rare attack, but once again the assistant had his flag up for offside. 

[alles ist gut]

1-0 Red Star.

 

Long punt over the defence, their centre forward rounds Jaros and slots it home.

[alles ist gut]

Glatzel heads over from inches out.

 

Bobby Duncan on for Jake Cain.

[alles ist gut]

Penalty given for a push on Adekanye.

 

Lewis has it saved and can’t do anything with the rebound.

[alles ist gut]

Camacho from 25 yards into the top corner, 1-1!

[alles ist gut]

2-1

Lewis corner headed home by Rhys Williams in stoppage time!

[alles ist gut]

Camacho denied twice by the keeper in the fourth minute of injury time.

 

Full time, 2-1.

 

Not a flawless performance, but three points all the same.

[alles ist gut]

Meanwhile in Paris, PSG and Napoli drew 0-0, leaving us 3 points ahead of the French, with a significantly better goal difference.

[VERBAL DIARRHEA]

Best team won. Adekanye was so wasteful again though.

Team :

 

Grabara; N. Williams, Lewis, Johnston, Juanma, Virtue, Chirivella, Jones, Camacho, Adekanye, Millar.

 

Subs : McKenzie-Lyle, Masterson, Gallacher, Christie-Davies, McAuley

[Allan]

Blackburn 1 Liverpool 0

 

A shot from distance finds a way past Grabara who was a little unsighted.

[Allan]

Blackburn 2 Liverpool 0

 

The Blackburn left back squeezes the ball home from a yard out at the back post after the home side break down the right. Adam Lewis nowhere to be seen at left back.

 

Awful start to the game. Grabara had already made 2 good saves before Blackburn opened the scoring.

[Allan]

Half time - Blackburn 2 Liverpool 0

 

Horrible start to the game as the hosts bullied our lads at the back. Juanma & Lewis especially.

 

Grabara made 2 good saves before Blackburn took a deserved lead.

 

Since we went 2-0 down, we've huffed and puffed, but not created much going forward.

[Allan]

Blackburn 2 Liverpool 1

 

The skipper Matty Virtue reacts quickest to head home a rebound from a Camacho effort that was pushed onto the bar by the home side's keeper.

 

Adam Lewis had crashed a free kick off the Blackburn bar just minutes before.

[Allan]

McAuley on for Millar.
