UEFA Champions League 2021/22 Soccer

[Crabtree]

Liverpool frustrated in the first half against Villarreal. One way traffic but Villarreal have been solid enough at the back to keep in goalless at the break.

Finally Liverpool score. Some luck as it was a deflected cross but Liverpool players were lining up for a tap-in.

And Mane makes it 2-0 as I'm typing

 

[Crabtree]

Liverpool have been very good tonight and finally got their reward.

Could end up being 3 or 4 by the end.

 

[Best]

All fairly routine for Liverpool. They may be disappointed not to have scored more but I can't see Villarreal troubling them in the second leg

 

[Ray Gin]

Always had the potential to be a damp squib, especially after yesterday's match. Villarreal defended well first half but they did absolutely nothing on the ball. So impressive to watch the athleticism and pressing in this Liverpool side compared to some other "top" teams.

 

[Crabtree]

Fabulous start for Villarreal and just the start Liverpool didn't want.

Game on now.

 

[Legion]

Villarreal lead 2-0!! Level on aggregate.

Liverpool have been abysmal

 

[Bandit]

Villarreal have been excellent. They deserve praise more than Liverpool deserve criticism.

 

[Crabtree]

Liverpool looking better this half. Should be a cracking end to this.

 

[Bandit]

Fabinho scores for Liverpool.

Liverpool playing more like they did in the first leg.
