“Liverpool Left Their Brains & Tactics In The Dressing Room At Half Time”
Liverpool endured a frustrating opening day setback as Sunderland show resilience and courage with a touch of class from their new signing.
Liverpool showed off all their new major signings in front of their home crowd. For the first half Liverpool looked dangerous and inventive with Suarez forcing Richardson into a bad back pass which the striker pounced on and rounded the keeper; only to be brought down by Richardson. The foul was worth a red card but the ref Phil Dowd preferred to give him a yellow to the crowds anger. Suarez blazed over the resulting spot kick.
