Match Report

After an embarrassing defeat against PSV in the Champions League and two draws in the Premier League, The Reds needed a win to keep their hopes of qualifying for the knockout stages of the UEFA Champions League alive.

Liverpool started well against last season’s finalists at the San Siro and dominated most of the first half. Efforts from Curtis Jones and Ryan Gravenberch tested Yann Sommer, but the Swiss International stood up to it on the night.

Just after the 30th-minute mark, Ibrahima Konate headed in from a corner, but the referee ruled out the goal for handball.

Inter Milan grew into the game in terms of chance creation, and just before half-time, Alisson denied a brilliant header from Lautaro Martinez. Inter and Liverpool took turns controlling the game in the second half, but Liverpool created the better openings and chances.

The Reds earned their reward for their efforts late in the game. A brilliant dink pass from Ekitike to Wirtz created a little opening inside Inter’s box, but Bastoni pulled the German, and after checking VAR, the referee gave a penalty.

Liverpool’s best player this season, Dominik Szoboszlai, stepped up and scored an important goal to help the Merseyside club secure a brilliant 1-0 win.

It was a statement win for Arne Slot and the Liverpool players amidst all the doubt and uncertainties surrounding the club and their star player, Mohamed Salah, at the moment. A performance like that assures fans that the club can still pull together to save their season.
