Champions League: Liverpool - Villareal

I guess this is a bit what we were expecting?
I think Liverpool (now being half time) had more opportunities that I thought they would have... but no effeciency so far.

2-0 ... Unless Liverpool does something weird or villareal changes it game completely, this should be in the bag.

@Kwek00 I think so. Villereal is a counter-attacking team. Seeing them beat a side like Liverpool 2-0 is difficult.

@Burnley123 1-0 was acceptable for them I think... but 2-0 is going to be hard to catch up at home.

@Kwek00 Villereal's only chance is that Liverpool might be tempted to rest some players. They are involved in a super-close title race and need every win in the league.

@Burnley123 ... or just have an off day. Everyone can have that.

Liverpool did well by surprising them directly after the 1st goal.
But yeah... on paper Liverpool should have this one in the bag.
The game in Madrid is one to look forward too.
