Events
Match Events
- 0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for Liverpool FC to score. At the same time, Leeds United FC does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
- 4' A goal from the Egypt international Mohamed Salah! He fires home on 4 to make it 1-0!
- 9' Joe Gomez is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Leeds United FC so far.
- 12' Jack Harrison makes no mistake. The score reads 1-1 and Leeds United FC are in front.
- 17' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 20' GOAL! Virgil van Dijk scores on 20. Assisted by Andrew Robertson
- 25' 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 Mateusz Klich suffering a number of foals already.
- 30' GOAL! Patrick Bamford scores on 30.
- 33' Mohamed Salah adds to his 1 season tally! Liverpool FC lead 3-2 — and this changes everything.
- 38' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 43' Robin Koch has been relatively quiet despite scoring 12 goals in his last 496 appearances.
- 48' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 53' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Leeds United FC that had 361 games and scored 535 goals.
- 58' The Liverpool FC manager makes a substitution. Naby Keita departs to be replaced by Fabinho.
- 62' Fresh legs for Leeds United FC! Rodrigo comes on to replace Patrick Bamford.
- 66' A goal from the Poland international Mateusz Klich! He fires home on 66 to make it 3-3!
- 66' It is a substitution in Liverpool FC team. Jordan Henderson is replaced by Curtis Jones on 66 minute.
- 71' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Liverpool FC and Leeds United FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 76' That is a Yellow card for Liverpool FC. Roberto Firmino will be fuming at that decision.
- 81' It is a substitution in Leeds United FC team. Mateusz Klich is replaced by Jamie Shackleton on 81 minute.
- 86' Over 86 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 88' The Egypt Mohamed Salah breaks the deadlock on 88 minutes. 4-3!
- 89' Fresh legs for Liverpool FC! Joel Matip comes on to replace Trent Alexander-Arnold.
