Relief for Liverpool in Europa league


Liverpool won the home match against Unirea Urziceni in the first leg of round 32. Thanks to David Ngog’s goal with 9 minutes to spare.
Liverpool dominated the match from the first minute which saw Gerrard failing to score. Dirk Kuyt’s effort on goal was saved by Urziceni’s goal keeper 10 minutes later. Later minutes saw Liverpool players competing to shoot the ball wide. Aurelio, Gerrard, Ngog and Skrtel all joined the party.
Gerrard is beginning to find his form but is not yet near his form when it comes to scoring. His 74th minute shot was saved by goalkeeper.
Liverpool became livelier when Riera was replaced by Ryan Babel. His runs in the left flank always created problems for the Romanian defence. It was him who combined with another substitute Pacheco to create the goal opportunity. The cross from Babel was nodded into the path of Ngog by Pacheco. The French man made no mistake with his head.
Liverpool will be desperately trying to win Europa league as there is nothing for the fans to cheer. They have a disappointing premier league and silverwares have deserted the merseysiders for some time.
