Events

Match Events

  • 10' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Atalanta BC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 15' The 30-year-old Kostas Tsimikas has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 3 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 16' GOAL! Diogo Jota scores on 16. Assisted by Trent Alexander-Arnold

  • 65' Another substitution for Liverpool FC to replace Diogo Jota by Roberto Firmino on 65 minute.

  • 71' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 71 minutes.
  • 76' Liverpool FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 81' Another change for Atalanta BC made on 81 minute. Johan Mojica leaves to be changed by Matteo Ruggeri.

  • 87' Mario Pasalic has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • Another three points for Liverpool FC.
