Stats from LFC: Possession 72.7-27.3%, Pass accuracy 91.2-72.1%, Shots inside box 12-2

Teams:

Matip and Fabinho from the off giving the basis for the rest of it to take shape
Getting Henderson right of a three so important
Atletico 5-3-2 with runners when they can – setup to not allow a game to run away

Seeing the patterns of play return that weren’t present – triangles in wide areas leading to first
Defending narrow with movement off the ball key
At 2-0 up Liverpool go into hunting mode to keep the ball

Red card and the sub means Mane arguably suffers most
3-0 and 2-1 the only talking points of a second-half which has a lot of Brighton memory attached
Thiago a bonus/Firmino a blow

The group being done at this point
