It often appeared that Mane and Salah were playing as a two, with Firmino dropping and creating a diamond.Warnock’s approach was passive, and why did it seem like their were plenty of gaps to go through them rather than around or over-the-top.Each of the front three has a good chance in the first half, but no manage to convert.It was analysis by the players at half-time that led to a slightly different corner routine being tried, and it broke the deadlock.Matip and Van Dijk dribbling out with the ball and creating space and committing players.The controversy surrounding the Salah penalty, especially after Warnock’s comments after the game.Looking ahead to Barcelona.All this and more on Tactics Weekly!
While a routine victory, the Reds continue to defy expectations in some quarters of buckling under the pressure. In many ways, the Redmen showed exquisite composure, dispensing with Cardiff in the most professional manner, losing neither patience nor control. This was despite an incredibly dry pitch, and a unit intent on never opening the bus door. Still, Liverpool blew it down; a bullet from Gini and a gift from the Cardiff defense for the penalty, granting Liverpool a relatively easy victory. Kay, Tom and Adam get through this regulation win that wasn't without its talking points, including:- Matip rising- Gini refreshed- Set Peice tweaking
