Southampton 1-2 Liverpool: 4 talking points after Liverpool defeats Southampton

#2 Adrian’s blunders

Southampton 1-2 Liverpool

It was reported that Adrian is not fully fit after a fan hurt him during UEFA Super Cup celebrations, yet Jurgen Klopp decided to play him instead of opting the third-choice goalkeeper.

Since the start, Adrian was looking nervous on the ball, whenever he was being given a back-pass. In the first half, he received a pass from Virgil Van Dijk but he hit the ball on the opposition player whilst clearing it away.

Later, the unfortunate happened, when in the final phase of the game, Adrian once again received a pass and in nervousness, he misplaced the ball and Liverpool conceded the goal. It was certain that the Spanish goalkeeper was not confident with the injury.
