In their first match under coach Andoni Iraola, Liverpool defeated another English Premier League club, Sunderland, 4–2 on Sunday. However, this victory proved costly for Liverpool, as defender Joe Gomez was forced to leave the field with an injury early in the match.
Gomez, 29, was injured in the tenth minute of the game. In this win, Kieran Morrison, Dominik Szoboszlai, Federico Chiesa, and Luis Comas each scored a goal for Liverpool. After the match, Iraola said, “We played our first game today; there is still a lot to fix in the team. The players have only just started training, so there will be weaknesses in the team's performance. But a winning start is always good.”
He added, “But the only bad news is that Joe got injured. No one was injured during the initial training. But unfortunately, we lost Joe to injury today.” Now, the Spanish coach can field another center-back, Jeremy Jacquet. He joined Liverpool last season but did not play much due to injury.
Iraola further said, “He has not played for a long time because of a shoulder injury. So we want to make things comfortable for him. He will probably play the final match of the US tour. We will also try to give him as much time as possible.” Now, Liverpool will play against Wrexham, Leeds United, AS Roma, and Como. In the Premier League, Liverpool will face Newcastle United in their first match on August 23.
Tottenham Victorious
English Premier League club Tottenham defeated Auckland 2–0 in Sunday’s friendly match, making a winning start to the new season. Dane Scarlett and Richarlison each scored a goal for Tottenham. Coach Roberto De Zerbi fielded most of his young players against A-League champions Auckland and did not want to take many risks in the game.
