Man of the Match

Liverpool 2-0 Manchester United: Who Was Man of the Match?

Liverpool move 16 points clear at the top of the Premier League with a game in hand after a 2-0 victory over Manchester United at Anfield. The match should have been wrapped up long before it was, leading to a nervous final 10 or 15 minutes. The Reds held on, though, and the 3...

Liverpool 2-0 Sheffield United: Who Was Man of the Match?

Liverpool moved 13 points at the top of the Premier League after a very impressive 2-0 win against Sheffield United at Anfield. The Reds controlled the game from start to finish and fully deserved the 3 points and a clean sheet. In goal, Alisson had very little to do once again, until the last 5...

Liverpool 1-0 Wolves: Who Was Man of the Match?

We end 2019 with yet another 3 points at Anfield. It was a bit of a grind but, in the end, a deserved win despite a somewhat lacklustre performance. It was clear the team was suffering from the relentless fixture pile-up over this Christmas period and were unable to play with the same intensity...

Leicester City 0-4 Liverpool: Who Was Man of the Match?

What a performance. We go away to the team sitting in second place in the league and make them look like a bunch of part-timers. A truly scintillating display from start to finish and, in truth, 4-0 flattered Leicester. This was always going to be one of the harder games on the schedule, but...

Liverpool 1-0 Flamengo (AET): Who was man of the match?

World champions and international treble winners: that has quite the ring to it. Though profligate in front of goal and on the receiving end of some woeful refereeing, Liverpool eventually ran out victorious against Flamengo to cap off a memorable 2019 with more silverware. South America's finest were impressive in the first half but the...

Liverpool 2-0 Watford: Who Was Man of the Match?

Liverpool win yet again in the Premier League in an admittedly subpar performance against Watford at Anfield. Mo Salah was the difference with 2 sublime goals, both with his infamous right foot. Watford created a number of very good chances and on another day would have done enough to at least take a point...

Liverpool 2-1 Brighton: Who Was Man of the Match?

I’m getting mighty tired of these nail-biters. One regular day of Barclays, that’s all I ask for. Right now, it doesn’t look as if it will happen. Despite that, with Leicester still to play, the Reds are a massive 11 points clear at the top of the Premier League with 14 games played. Despite...

Liverpool 3-1 Manchester City: Who Was Man of the Match?

What a win that is. Absolutely delightful to get another one over the cardigan-clad crybaby and put us a monstrous 9 points clear of City and 8 points clear at the top of the table. We were extraordinarily clinical when the chances and half-chances fell our way, while the Sky Blues couldn’t do enough...

Liverpool 2-1 Genk: Who Was Man of the Match?

Another unnecessarily nervy ending to a game we largely dominated. We’re making a bit of a habit of conceding every game despite the opposition creating very little. A win is a win, though, and it sees us move to the top of the group after Napoli drew with Salzburg. You’ve always got to be...

Aston Villa 1-2 Liverpool: Who Was Man of the Match?

I’ll be honest with you all – I turned my Chinese stream off a couple of minutes before Robertson’s equaliser. I didn’t think it was worth the constant flicking between grainy, lag-ridden pictures just to see us lose. How wrong I was. This team just never gives up and despite Jon Moss and Martin...
