Half time entertainment.

There is enough time for Goncalves to dig from a distance. It’s easy for Alisson, to raise the flag for offside anyway, and that’s the end of a very entertaining first half. Liverpool They still dominate this tie, but Benfica is far from finished.

45 min +2: Diaz’s dribbles fall from the left. The ball explodes to Henderson, who rolls in Gomez’s direction, and flows in from the right. It’s a fake version of the Pele/Carlos Alberto dynamic in the 1970 World Cup Final. Gomez connects well, but his shot flies straight to Flashodemos.

40 minutes: The goal, which was quickly followed by that rejected opportunity, gave him Benfica More faith. Anfield suddenly became a more contemplative place. Meanwhile, here’s Mark Lloyd: “Having Darwin among Benfica’s ranks leads me to think that if Divock hadn’t called his autobiography ‘On Origi Species’ it would be a tragic oversight.”

38 minutes: Big chance go begging Liverpool. Milner’s long ball in the middle found Firmino clear. Vlachodimos in no man’s land. Firmino thinks of a knockout, but instead squares for Diaz, who’s forming to push home from six yards…only for Grimaldo to slip out of nowhere and pull the ball off his toe! Diaz jumps in helpless frustration. The resulting corner comes with nothing.

37 minutes: Keita is trying to score from 35 yards! Full marks for ambition, although the ball is currently flying over Stanley Park.

35 minutes: The ball actually got off Milner while she was playing it…and it was Ramos anyway. There is nothing wrong with this goal at all. Liverpool They would get upset with themselves, even though that came out of nowhere.
