61' from the genk FK, 50 yards from goal, loops in to liverpool back post, which leads to a header but is then adjudged offside.
62' oh SNAP. no goal but such tidy and beautiful play from our team. going to try and summarize we maintain possession in genk third, gini gets the ball, holds on in right channel facing goal, has square ball options, plays in origi down right side, who passes to salah, who flicks to gini, who has a beautiful chance blocked. there was another chance that happened after that that was also blocked, but with appeals for handball 63' resumed questions for handball when ball from TAA to ox crosses and def hits arm of defender but isnt given
65' salah and gini combine to beautfully break genk offside trap, gini gathers at byline, cuts back to origi who crosses in left footed but is cleared... liverpool maintain psossession, with a fancy backheel pass from salah that goes to milner, who dribbles through... the ball comes out to TAA who takes a left footed shot well over the bar
75' milner showing his age and experience, draws and easy foul in villa third near the left touchline ball in is cleared by genk for a corner. corner comes to naught, goes all the way back to allisson and liverpool restart possession
Still much of the same...LFC with all the posession...Genk with the occasional foray...dangerous when we’re only up by one goal. Mane on for Ox, Robertson on for Keita (Milner moving up)
77' liverpool work the ball to the right channel, passes exchanged between origi and salah.. salah takes the ball and attempts an audacious dribble through the genk defense but its cleared, leads to a gank gk, which liverpool gather and begin possession... ball lost in midfield by origi+taa, genk breaks down left channel... ball ends up being a liverpool gk off a tackle
As much as we've dominated this match, there's no reason to be sweating out the final 10 minutes. Put the damn thing to bed already.
80' liverpool nearly break through the middle, origi tries to get to the ball but genk gets there first, origi's momentum carries him into the genk player who takes a hard hit but with good sportsmanship gets up and accepts the fall possession from genk nearly leads to a genk goal!! genk plays a ball into the pocket in the back right of liverpool, the genk player collects on his chest, turns, and shoots! but its saved, the ball comes out, leads to genk header which goes over
83' mis-cue from taa is then passed to fab, who puts a ball over the top for salah, but the ball is knicked off his toe just before he can shoot with hsi right genk counter, through liverpool right channel, some pinball in the box but the ball is cleared to salah... who plays in mane on the left, but its put out for a throw
Their defender with the ponytail and sleeves of tattoos is having way too much fun. Keeps smiling and hugging our guys out there after every play. I don't have that much carefree attitude in my Sunday league.
86' genk FK from left side, 50 yards out, sent to back left channel of liverpool defense towards the lanky dude, comes to scrappy play, leads to a good genk cross from the left and is put out decisively by allisson.. leads to two salah chances in genk penalty box. one where salah twinkle toes in and comes to naught, and another where he twinkle toes, leads to a weak shot to the keeper
88' deep cross from genk right side is caught easily by allisson, who throws out for a counter, but liverpool settle into possession in genk half/third
89' possession builds in genk third into a origi shot thats blocked wide right of genk goal. origi sub for firmino
