That's that then. 3:1 to Liverpool and when a team has 36 shots against you know you've been well beaten. After Lingard equalised in the first half we held Liverpool at bay for much of the second-half but once Shaqiri's deflected shot made it 2:1 we were always going to lose this game. The Swiss international then added a third, via another deflection, to make it 3:1.
In truth we were miles off Liverpool today, have been all season. They won comfortably today and Alisson had so little to do he could afford to gift us a first-half goal. We are now 19 points behind Liverpool!! We languish in sixth while they top the table. Not nearly good enough.
