Roma dare to hope another comeback is possible against Liverpool

His 42-goal haul for the season so far means he is second only to legendary striker Ian Rush for the most goals scored in a season by a Liverpool player, with Rush netting 47 times in 1983-84.

Firstly, with nine minutes left, Dzeko slotted home his 21st goal of the season as Lovren got caught underneath the ball.Moments later, Anfield was stunned when Milner was punished for handball inside the area and Perotti coolly slotted home the resulting penalty.

The Reds are in a strong position regardless of whether a new deal is signed, having omitted a release clause in Salah’s contract upon his arrival from Roma last summer, in a deal worth £36m.

The kid is spoilt: he has grown up with miracles as a young Liverpool supporter, now he sees them everyday in training – and plays alongside one on matchdays.

“Liverpool will fancy their chances in this competition now, no doubt about that”.

Dzeko chested down a long pass to make it 5-1 in the 81st and when Milner handled a shot from Radja Nainggolan, Perotti converted the penalty in the 89th.

The RTE pundits discussed the incident before kick off between Real Madrid and Bayern Munich and couldn’t have been more spot in if they tried.

He was once again the star of the show as he scored two and set up two in Liverpool FC’s 5-2 win over AS Roma in the Champions League on Tuesday night. Salah after all was a talented player, but who often lacked an end product. At this rate, the Ballon D’Or could be his next year. “We will wait for him like a good wife when the man is in prison”, Klopp said when asked about Oxlade-Chamberlain’s injury. It couldn’t have been placed any better. He quickly became a regular in the first team the following season and fans started looking upon the high flying forward as their next superstar player.

In a statement released on Thursday on the club’s official website, Liverpool said they will do whatever they can to ensure fans travelling to the second leg on Wednesday are safe.

And when Firmino nodded in Liverpool’s fifth goal, the semifinal looked over with 110 minutes remaining. Without possession he helped lead the press and dropped back to put on pressure, while when attacking his place on the shoulder of Roma’s defence caused havoc.

Keane suggested the late away goals Roma snatched at Anfield will not be crucial in the outcome of the tie, as he backed Jurgen Klopp’s men to seal their place in the final when they travel to Rome next week.
