Wolverhampton –
Liverpool trailing 0-1 in the first half Wolverhampton Wanderers. Hwang Hee-chan’s goal gave the hosts the lead at Molineux, Saturday (16/9/2023) evening WIB.
The Course of the Match
Liverpool were immediately troubled by Wolverhampton’s pressing after the kickoff. The hosts did not let Dominik Szoboszlai and Alexis Mac Allister feel comfortable holding the ball and controlling the game.
GOAL! Wolves took the lead in the seventh minute. Through a quick attack from the left side, Pedro Neto escaped and sent a cross which Hwang Hee-chan just pushed into the goal.
Liverpool tried to develop the game. However, aggressive pressure on their two pivots, Szoboszlai and Mac Allister, made it difficult to build attacks.
Almost! Liverpool almost conceded a second goal in the 34th minute. Neto again escaped on the left and fired a cross which fell straight to Matheus Cunha. But Cunha failed to predict the fall of the ball correctly, in the end the ball was released and secured by Liverpool’s defense.
Liverpool still cannot register a threat against Wolverhampton’s goal. Cody Gakpo’s kick from Andy Robertson’s pass in the 38th minute still deviated far from the target.
Another opportunity from Liverpool in the 46th minute, when the visitors caused chaos in the opponent’s goal. Mohamed Salah’s shot was blocked by a Wolves defender and the wild ball was again struck by Szoboszlai, who this time was cleared by the goalkeeper. The first round ends.
