In the second half, A cult hero on the red side of Merseyside’s Divock Origi, who has come up with so many iconic moments over the years for Liverpool in what seems to be his last season would he be able to come up with another Iconic Moment?
A beautiful bit of Hold up Play by The Belgian that turned into a pass to the Egyptian King Mo Salah and a cross into Andrew Robertson who scored a header for his first goal in front of a Joyous Kop. Origi contribution number one but would it be the last?
