Liverpool’s Win over AC Milan
Posted on July 31, 2016 at 12:11 pm
It’s probably the most friendly competition in world football; the international Champions Cup. In their second game of the tournament, Liverpool beat AC Milan 2-0 thanks to goals from Origi and Firmino, but what did the win prove?
Origi will continue improving
The goal was simply sublime. The touch was calm, whilst the rapid movement created enough space to fire the ball home. He made an instant impact when he came on and he’ll certainly be competing with Daniel Sturridge for a starting spot this year.
Mane is fast
Mane really showed his pace in the game, exposing AC Milan’s back four numerous times. With Ojo and Mane, Liverpool will give Liverpool some much-needed pace, something they lacked last year.
AC Milan look poor
You can’t say Liverpool’s defence looked good because they were barely tested. It was a good game for Liverpool, but AC Milan just wasn’t up for it.
