Robertson's run and cross to Mane to get the corner wasnae bad.

Good time to score a second, but, this Roma team ain't all that good.

California. Duh.
I read that the Rome police was saying the Liverpool supporters may have to stay in the stadium until 1am local time after the game to allow for the Roma fans to disperse.

The encouraging aspect about Liverpool here is that even when Roma have the ball in Liverpool's half , Liverpool are keeping 3 pushed up front. There have been a number of 3 on 3's as Liverpool countered. Plenty of goals left for Liverpool methinks. This is the Heavy Metal style of play Klopp talked about when he took over. Good stuff...glad they're not trying to just protect their first leg lead. Go on Reds!

Karius has actually looked pretty good going into a crowd and either catching or punching away some high balls.

If you have Comcast it should be streaming on FS1 from their site. Otherwise Reddit soccerstreams is solid

Wijnaldum scored 11 goals for Newcastle and now has 8 for Liverpool. That was the first one of the 19 that was scored away from home.

And Karius repays my faith by only being saved from conceding a penalty because of a borderline offside flag.

That wasn't borderline. He was onside. Got away with one there.

Aaaaaaand that was bound to happen.

And that's another penalty we get away with. This time courtesy of TAA. Christ, this game needs to end already.

It's a bit keystone cops; Liverpool riding on a little crest of luck here. All they have to do is...it's not rocker science. They have nothing more to acheive. Just play keep ball.

It's funny that I'm openly hoping for another Liverpool goal so that Roma would need 5.

This is the exact opposite of watching them play in Europe under Rafa.

How the hell was that not called a foul on the Roma keeper?

That was an outrageous strike by Nainggolan. Lucky for Liverpool that’s the only positive impact he’s had in either leg
