“Rains made it difficult for the Wolves as well as for Liverpool. Though Raul Jimenez“ and Traore were dangerous when they played in the first half, those who unpicked the Wolves team were the key men of Liverpool later on. Santos, the manager of Wolves, stated that the performance was not consistent throughout the game. He also admitted that the Wolves needed to improve and the areas of weakness were the parts where Liverpool was able to take advantage of. However, he felt that the Wolves persevered though Liverpool was the “first on their place“and it required concentration and dedication of the team to keep up to it. Though the Wolves team focused on the goal they were unable to get it, especially during key moments of the game. Though they did put in a good performance in the first half, they were unable to score in the second half.
