Events

Match Events

  • 0' What a night it is going to be! Liverpool FC welcome Brentford FC for this crunch clash at Anfield.
  • 5' Trent Alexander-Arnold has been relatively quiet despite scoring 21 goals in his last 409 appearances.
  • 10' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Alisson Becker suffering a number of foals already.
  • 15' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 19' Controversy at the stadium! Kristoffer Vassbakk Ajer argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
  • 24' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 29' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 34' It looks surprising Brentford FC does not make any changes. Joel Matip has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.

  • 44' A goal from the Brazil international Fabinho! He fires home on 44 to make it 1-0!

  • 64' Brentford FC come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
  • 68' Shandon Baptiste makes way for Yoane Wissa at the 68 minute mark. A tactical switch from Brentford FC.
  • 69' What a moment for Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain! That strike on 69 puts his side firmly in control.
  • 74' Liverpool FC make a change. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain trudges off to be replaced by Takumi Minamino on 74 minutes.
  • 75' Brentford FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Mathias Jensen is hanging Bryan Mbeumo on the field on 75 minute.
  • 77' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Takumi Minamino makes it 3-0.
  • 78' James Milner gets the nod from Liverpool FC. He replaces Roberto Firmino and will look to change the dynamic.
