S) ALAAAAAAAHHHHH! MISSES! A late run past the penalty spot and Gomez finds him from wide right with an excellent cross. Salah puts his head on it but the shot is wide of the near post. Still no shots on target for Liverpool. Atletico defenders are getting sooooo tight to Liverpool forwards. Klopp’s players should make more of it, they could be winning all sorts of free-kicks if they were so inclined.

S) imeone is dancing about on the touchline, urging the crowd to make more noise, so intense and passionate that I think TVs nearby the stadium are probably losing reception, seeing static and hearing white noise. Liverpool win a free-kick yards out on the right wing. It’s swung in, cleared, Origi keeps it alive and the move continues. Alexander-Arnold’s cross is blocked, Firmino has the ball in the box but has to go backwards.

A) tletico look so dangerous on the counter. Liverpool are really being tested here and Origi tries to play out while surrounded and scoops the ball onto a red and white shirt. Atletico get the ball in the box, Correa is wide of goal and near the touchline, so close to the goalkeeper he could touch him and cuts back to Vrsaljko … who waits and loses control. Chance wasted.
