Liverpool score two quick goals in second half to make it 2-1
Van Dijk’s demanding standards appeared to deliver the exact kick-start Andoni Iraola’s side needed after the interval.
Taking full advantage of their numerical superiority following Yarmoliuk’s red card, Liverpool emerged for the second period with renewed intensity and movement in the final third.
The tactical shift paid immediate dividends around the hour mark. Spanish winger Víctor Munoz leveled the scoreline in the 62nd minute, smartly finishing off a team move to restore parity.
LOVELY WIRTZ THROUGH BALL.
