He had no chance with any of the three goals of Benfica and made a good repulse from the dangerous Nunes shortly after the third. Joe Gomez 6 He lost a game to Nunez early but otherwise steady and was occasionally pushed forward in the first half before, but a difficult time when he was isolated from Nunez in the second half. He even had a shot. Joel Matip 6 No major problems, as Benfica were kept within breathing distance of the ball until the collective eye was removed to give the visitors hope for a slow return. Ibrahima Konate 7 He bounced Nunez into huge applause and then led the first game to a second draw. Solid.

Very well. Jordan Henderson 6 He started much more vigorously than at City and provided solid bases in the midfield, but was rushed in too many passes and found it difficult to hold the ball on the floor a few times. Substrate. James Milner 6 Good energy and came out in front of the first ten minutes, but became less effective after the tackle that inadvertently made Ramos equalize. Substrate. Naby Keita 6 Some decent touches as Liverpool took the early initiative, but lost their way just before mid-time until it came again later. Close with one effort though. Louis Diaz 9 Bright from the first whistle and negative goal in the first half only from the decent repulse of Vlachodimos and the vital touch of Grimaldo. He caused Benfica all kinds of problems with his rhythm and immediacy. Substrate. Roberto Firmino 8 Connected, they played well, pushed hard and the header bounced off, but he should have shot when he passed to Diaz instead when the first half was clear. On hand to strike in the second and a minute volley for the third. Substrate. Diogo Jota 7 He brought his shoes and regularly proved to be a threat as Liverpool regularly mined his left side and lay down on the second. Substrate. Mohamed Salah (for Jota 57) 6 The first action saw him follow Nunez to the end of the wing. Close with a curling iron. Fambino (for Henderson 57) 6 He kept things in order in the engine room, but went a little further as Benfica pushed everything forward slowly. Thiago Alcantara (for Milner 58) 6 Effortless though safe distribution by the Spaniard. Santo Mane (for Diaz 66) 6 Sporadic fun on the left side. Divock Origi (for Firmino) Hello.
