Liverpool – Leicester City: Premier League – Live | Premier League

27 minutes: Just before the disallowed goal, Robertson slid recklessly on Kasten, chasing his heavy touch. This was supposed to be a reservation, but no blame. Both teams got away with one now.

26 minutes: Ward kicks the ball directly at Salah. The ball rebounded to Oxlade-Chamberlain, who passed it back to Salah, just off the right edge from D. Salah kicked it past Ward, but she did not celebrate by hitting the ball into the back of the net. He knows Oxlade-Chamberlain was offside when the ball bounced off him at first.

25 minutes: Finds Thiago Robertson on the acres bottom left. Robertson hits a dismal cross deep into Anfield Road. Throw that gift for Barnes in there, and he’s been looking pretty good so far tonight.

23 minutes: … Having said that, Nunez weeps past Weiss down the left with ease, reaches to the sideline, and slashes Salah, who lashes wide from ten yards out. He should have scored or hit the target at the very least. What a run by Nunez, though!

22 minutes: Klopp wanted the atmosphere at Anfield tonight. Well, he’s got one, but she’s nervous. The home fans are in a very pensive mood, and it’s no wonder their team is so ubiquitous here.

21 minutes: The corner kick is long from the left. Amartey has a free header into the right corner of the six-yard box! He should score, but the ball deflected to another corner. This leads nowhere, however Liverpool on the shelf here. Lester cuts it off at will.

20 minutes: Robertson guides Barnes the ball on the halfway line. He has options on both sides, but he allows Thiago to make an overwhelming tackle. It didn’t matter, because Leicester came back again, Vardy running down the right and swinging a low cross into the box towards Barnes. Alexander-Arnold’s telescopic leg denied Lester a certain second at the expense of a corner.

18 minutes: Elliott flicks the ball into the right inside channel and Thomas knocks it down. It’s the defender’s second challenge in a short time, but there is no yellow card, which is a bit surprising. Just a free kick, and Alexander-Arnold missed it.

17 minutes: Alexander Arnold’s eyes light up. Takes a free kick directly into the wall. The ball bounces back to him. It’s a pearl in the low distance…and that’s ringing on the wall, too. Lester clears their lines. Frustrating start to Liverpoolwell, although they seem quite active in attack.

15 minutes: Thiago busy himself in the right inside channel this time, Thomas tipped him over to the right of D. Vardy before the free kick could be taken.

14 minutes: Daka can not go on. Vardy – against whom he scored ten goals in his career Liverpool In his resume – preparing to take his place. On a cold night, he had plenty of training gear to peel, so Leicester continues with ten men for the time being.

12 minutes: Dhaka goes down after feeling the back of his leg. Hamstring problem? Come physicists.

10 minutes: Alexander-Arnold and Elliott combine well lower right. A low cross almost found Nunez in the penalty area. Amarti extends his leg to take a corner from which nothing comes. Great defense.

9 minutes: To be fair to Leicester, the halfway-line slam dunk to serve Dewsbury-Hall clear was a fine exchange between Barnes and Daka. It was a goal as well as absurdly defended.

8 minutes: Another long pass down the middle is almost a catch Liverpool abroad again. Van Dijk gets in the way of Daka on board to throw the ball to Alisson, who sprints wide. Liverpool looks really very shaky.

6 minutes: It was comically easy for Leicester. Big gap between the central defenders. Liverpool The metaphorical old red carpet rolled out. They try to strike back immediately, Thiago rolls into the Leicester box down the inside left channel but there are three defenders there and upon meeting them he drops the ball and the ball rolls into Ward’s arms.

Goal! Liverpool 0-1 Leicester City (Dewsbury-Hall 4)

3 minutes: A long pass down the left nearly releases Barnes. For a moment, it seemed like he was getting the better of Matip, but the defender held his ground and eventually ran out for a goal kick. Liverpool break, and Elliott sends a weak cross over the bar.

2 minutes: Elliott, Salah and Alexander-Arnold combine quickly down the right, a flowing move that earns a throw deep into Leicester territory. Ward could easily claim the throw, as could Rodgers, another Leicester staffer back at his old mansion. But this is a positive start by the hosts.

Allison raises his arms in prayer, then the whistle blows and Lester begins. They’re playing towards the cup this first half.

The difference is out! Liverpool All red, Lister all blue. Alisson carries a bouquet of Brazilian yellow and white to honor Pele. Jordan Henderson carries a bouquet of red for Liverpool in honor of former striker David Johnson, who passed away in November. Then the warmest and loudest memorial applause Oh my And the document. Meanwhile in the stands sit new signing Cody Gacbo…and Gary Barlow. The match will take place soon. It only takes 1 minute.

Reason for Fabinho’s omission from the team: His wife went into labour. “We hope to get some good news from him in a couple of hours,” reports Klopp. Best wishes to Rebecca Tavares and Fabinho.

Rodgers on Pele. “You have seen Torrent, salute. When was the last time here [at Anfield] That was 2015 and I was still a manager here. He always reminded me of my dad, who loved Pele, that was his idol, so when I saw [the news] My first thought was of my father, who had obviously passed away as well. But the outpouring of emotion, the tribute by everyone, really tells you what it was like as a player, but also as a person, and his legend will live on forever, for sure.”

Klopp leaves. In the other direction, Brendan Rodgers. The pair smile and hug warmly, then Rodgers joins Sky for his part in some pre-match patter. “When you come to the biggest teams you need maximum focus and commitment. We were on a great run, but it was different from us at the start of the Newcastle game, when we were down twice after ten minutes. It was tough, so we need to focus and get Our focus right from the start. We chose a midfield with three legs. With the most intention, you have to defend for long periods here, and Wilf [Ndidi] He’s obviously a good defensive player. Hopefully James Madison will be back with the group within the next week to ten days.”

… And to complete Klopp’s hat-trick, here he is in Cody Gacbo. “We’ve had interest in Cody for a long time. You know our situation, we can’t just pick players and put them on top and top all the time. We need to raise money a little bit before we can spend a little bit, and then we can collect it again. So Cody is an interesting player.” He was really respected and loved at PSV and we think this is the right moment to put him in. He can play in all four matches. [forward] positions, and this is very rare. He has size, physicality, he can shoot out of the box, he has a good finishing nose, he’s fast, he’s a good dribbler. There are so many things to get excited about. Players usually develop well with us, and it’s really good.”

Klopp – speaking to Sky Sports – moves on to tonight’s game. “The stats aren’t very important. We lost the last game against them, I can feel that if I think about it. You see, Leicester had a tough start to the season like we did, but they found a way to it. Their squad has a lot of speed, when they play against us they kick the ball for a long time, So we don’t know exactly, we have to be ready for everything. It’s Anfield, we’ve been playing here for a long time. We can’t wait and now we have to create an atmosphere.”

Jurgen Klopp on Pele. “My dad always said, whatever happens in the future, Pele is the best. That’s in my opinion. I only saw him as a kid playing, but I met him once around the 2006 World Cup, and [genuine childlike excitement sparkles in his eyes] I have an autographed shirt he gave me for my birthday, which is so special! So it’s really hard to be honest. Yeah. Let me put it this way: I believe in God and whatever team he’s playing for now, they have a decent player. So everything will be fine. But of course it will be a huge loss and may he rest in peace.”

Liverpool made one change to the starting line-up in the aftermath of a 3-1 win over Aston Villa on Boxing Day. Harvey Elliott comes on for Fabinho, who is completely absent. Ibrahim Konate has returned from his post-World Cup break on the bench.

Leicester make two changes to the team Newcastle beat 3-0 at home. Ayoze Perez is making only his second start of the season, while Wilfried Ndidi is also in action. Youri Tielemans falls to the bench, while Dennis Praet is out with an injury. James Madison was also injured. Jamie Vardy starts on the bench.
