Ah. Surprised he could see the arms past the blinding, annoying smile.

No. It was just a blatant push in the back. Not the major thing like the tiny tap that gave them a penalty.

Is that a reference to someone at Liverpool, or OJ? 🙂

Lallana seemed to forget who was employing him, when his dream team came calling. :-)

I think you'll find that we were otherwise employed convicting the dog in the Hackman deaths. 🙂

I never suspected OttawaSaint for OJ's crimes. But now you've cracked the case... 🙂

Fernandes gets the ball. But nowhere for him to go and no passes open. So, back it goes.

We are trying longer passes looking for Sule to be running in behind, while keeping some compactness at the back. But the passes are mainly miles off. We don;t have that kind of sharpness, or directness as a team, sadly. Still Sule and Fernandes up there trying.

Les missed the pass there. Not great.

Pet commentary team full of Liverpool manager and ref praise, now they are ahead. They are a disgrace.

Well, there's contact and he falls over. So...

Really ref?

'tator was talking about how decisive slot was in taking off players on a yellow. Kept hacker on, and he gets it past Les and in.

Bah!

Ramsdale giving some constructive feedback to ABK there. Good to see. The rollocking, and not the pass.

Still. Love and light from Glasgow 🙂

"A bit of a lazy shot from Salah" said the 'tator who will be apologising for that and fawning later.

We've been looking forward again this half. Good to see. Nice pass out from Will. Super stop from Ramsdale!

C'Mon Saints!

3 Liverpool subs. We have them worried.

We set ourselves up with a decent formation and a plan today. Will and Les got a bit of cover in midfield, while Juric counted on Sule to be our outlet. We did enough to keep them relatively safely at bay, with good positioning on a few shots that needed blocking. Salah was having some joy against Manning. We doubled up on that, and then Salah cut in,allowing us to have Manning in there to provide more cover. Up front, they couldn;t let Sule alone as they know he's got the pace. Sometimes, that's all it takes. Being able to have more structure suits Will well. He's had an excellent half. Linking up with defence, being an outlet in midfield and looking to release Sule. And then there's his composure for his goal. I was looking forward to seeing him develop in the PL after such a lot of it in the Championship. Very pleased to see him doing so well today. More of the same second half, please.

Manning block! Handy that they aren;t trying to take him on one on one. He's got in a couple of really good clearances as a result.

Shame Sule's pass didn;t get to it's destination. Nice skill.

VAR looking at the Nunez challenge.... ... right decision.... ... KWP sent off, our goal disallowed and a goal given to Liverpool. 🙂

Nunez challenge looked like just a kick. Rubbish.
