Jurgen Klopp seems to have unearthed another gem in his final season at Liverpool after 20-year-old right back Conor Bradley scored one goal and set up two more in a 4-1 win over Chelsea in the Premier League on Wednesday. (More Football News)
Bradley, an academy product, has been filling in for Trent Alexander-Arnold during the England international라이브 바카라 recent injury layoff. He did his best impression of Liverpool라이브 바카라 first-choice right back in the way he took his goal and assisted on others for Diogo Jota and Dominik Szoboszlai at Anfield.
“It just feels like I’m in a dream,” said Bradley, a Northern Ireland international who joined Liverpool라이브 바카라 youth academy in 2019. “It라이브 바카라 unbelievable.”
Luis Diaz grabbed Liverpool라이브 바카라 fourth goal in a relentless, dominant display by the hosts that included a missed penalty by Darwin Nunez, who struck the post with his attempt and hit the goal frame three times in total in the match.
By securing the 200th Premier League win of Klopp라이브 바카라 tenure, Liverpool maintained its five-point lead over Manchester City, which also won on Wednesday by beating Burnley 3-1. City has a game in hand.
Klopp has plenty of strength in depth for the run-in, with Bradley turning out to be a nice surprise and clearly able to provide great cover for Alexander-Arnold.
Bradley was constantly marauding forward and he slipped in Jota, who dribbled between Thiago Silva and Benoit Badiashile before shooting home left-footed to give Liverpool a 23rd-minute lead.
Bradley added a second in the 39th by running onto a pass from Diaz, advancing 30 meters and driving a low shot into the far corner from just inside the area. It was a finish of which Alexander-Arnold would have been proud, just like the cross Bradley provided for Szoboszlai to head home in the 65th.
“Trent should take care of his position,” Szoboszlai said in a cheeky warning to Alexander-Arnold given Bradley라이브 바카라 form.
Bradley said he’d done “pretty well” in Alexander-Arnold라이브 바카라 absence.
“It was unfortunate the way Trent got injured,” he said. “I just had to try to take my chance.”
Nunez made up for his penalty miss by crossing for Diaz to score in the 79th, restoring Liverpool라이브 바카라 three-goal cushion after Christopher Nkunku netted for Chelsea in the 71st after coming on as a substitute.
There was a huge gulf between the teams, and the manner of Liverpool라이브 바카라 win might be psychologically damaging for Chelsea ahead of their meeting in the League Cup final on Feb. 25.
“It라이브 바카라 so clear they were much better than us,” Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino said. “We lost every single duel.”
