26.: For the first time it is extremely loud in the Red Bull Arena. Openda hits the ball into the top left corner after a pass from Xavi. However, the flag goes up immediately.
25.: Liverpool FC are still struggling to find a foothold in the game. Leipzig is waiting for mistakes.
23.: The yellow cards are very loose with the Swiss referee. Geertruida also sees yellow.
20.: The first finish from Mo Salah. The left foot shot just misses the goal.
19.: Sesko with the next huge opportunity for RB! Kelleher leaves his penalty area to clear with his head. The ball lands just in front of Sesko, who narrowly misses the goal almost free standing with a flick.
18.: Xavi dances in the tightest space in Liverpool’s penalty area. However, Leipzig does not come in the end.
14.: The game is slowly picking up speed. Henrichs plays a clever ball into the back of the Liverpool defence. Haidara fails with the left for Kelleher.
12.: Swallow by Mac Allister?! The Swiss referee shows Argentina yellow.
10.: Before taking the first corner of the match, referee Sandro Schärer has a lot to talk about. Tsimikas’s corner is then no danger.
8.: First yellow card in the game. Lukeba comes too late against Szoboszlai.
7.: First big chance for the hosts. Xavi crosses nicely with Sesko’s head, but doesn’t get enough pressure behind the ball.
5.: Liverpool are heading towards Leipzig’s goal for the first time. Gakpo’s cross was clearly missed by Salah.
3.: First shot for RB, Tsimikas is a bit drowsy and Xavi finishes, but clearly misses the target.
1.: The ball is rolling. The game begins!
