Liverpool 0-0 Bayern Munich: Jurgen Klopp’s men stifled by German giants in tense Champions League encounter
Liverpool have plenty to do in the second leg of their Champions League tie at Bayern Munich after playing out a goalless draw against the well-organised German side at Anfield.Jurgen Klopp found his former Bundesliga nemeses a tough nut to crack in their last-16 first leg encounter in a game where both sides cancelled each other out.4These clubs may have 10 European Cups between them but there was little to show for it in terms of quality, with just three combined shots on target in 90 minutes, which promised so much but delivered so little.Liverpool, with Virgil Van Dijk suspended and Dejan Lovren and Joe Gomez both injured, started with their fourth-choice centre-back in Joel Matip and midfielder Fabinho playing alongside him.It was not the best scenario to be facing the Champions League’s leading scorer Robert Lewandowski but a clean sheet was one positive to come from the night.Alisson Becker and Manuel Neuer, both goalkeepers reknowned for being comfortable on the ball, made errors which could – on another night – have led to goals.4Liverpool’s vaunted 44-goal front line also struggled to find their target with Sadio Mane screwing a shot on the turn with his weaker foot past the far post and Mohamed Salah criminally failing to even trouble Neuer with a free header having diverted an earlier volley straight at the goalkeeper.The closest either side came to scoring was when Matip diverted Serge Gnabry’s cross into the chest of Alisson from point-blank range with the Brazilian knowing little about it.Makeshift centre-back Fabinho continued to grow into the role he had only previously performed against Brighton’s Glenn Murray last month while in front of him Jordan Henderson was putting in a captain’s performance. Offensively his passing exposed the Bayern backline while his willingness to track back meant he was a key defensive player also.Klopp had written in his programme notes that anyone who had written off Bayern, second in Bundesliga just three points behind his former club Borussia Dortmund, this season risked looking silly.While they are not a vintage side, missing Arjen Robben with Franck Ribery only on the bench, they have vast experience at this level, reaching at least the semi-final six times in the last seven years – winning once – with the one ‘failure’ being only the last eight in 2017.It is why they still present such an obstacle in this competition and Gnabry’s shot just over the crossbar early in the second half proved that.4However, the hosts began to dominate midfield possession, led once again by the excellent Henderson, without carving out a real chance against a defence which looked shambolic against Augsburg on Friday.Mane’s stooping header five minutes from time was the closest they came but Neuer handled it comfortably.That may be something of a concern for Klopp heading into Sunday’s match at resurgent arch-rivals Manchester United, a game which could take them back to the top of the Premier League.4

Luis Suarez: The Champions League teams the Barcelona striker has failed to score against away from home, including Celtic and Man United
Luis Suarez is without question one of the best strikers in world football.However, the Barcelona frontman is on an awful run in the Champions League, having failed to score an away goal in the competition since September 2015 – that coming in a 1-1 draw at Roma.2The Uruguayan made a big contribution towards Barca’s winning goal at Manchester United on Wednesday night but his header across goal took a telling deflection off Luke Shaw so Suarez has not been credited with it.However, it didn’t stop the ex-Liverpool man celebrating in front of Old Trafford’s famous Stretford End and some Kopites were more than happy to let Suarez claim the goal.2Football is of course a team game and the LaLiga giants definitely have the advantage ahead of the second leg at the Nou Camp on Tuesday but Suarez’s failure to find the net in his last 17 Champions League outings away from home will worry him.Below you can see a list of the 17 Champions League away matches he’s played and 16 teams Suarez has failed to score against as well as how many minutes he played in each of them.

Suarez's dreadful run

BATE Borisov – 20/10/15 – Mins played: 90Arsenal – 23/02/16 – Mins played: 90Atletico Madrid – 13/04/16 – Mins played: 90Borussia Monchengladbach – 28/09/16 – Mins played: 90Manchester City – 01/11/16 – Mins played: 90Celtic – 23/11/16 – Mins played: 90Paris Saint-Germain – 14/02/16 – Mins played: 90Juventus – 11/04/17 – Mins played: 53Sporting Lisbon – 29/09/17 – Mins played: 89Olympiakos – 31/10/17 – Mins played: 90Juventus – 22/11/17 – Mins played: 90Chelsea – 20/02/18 – Mins played: 90Roma – 10/14/18 – Mins played: 90Tottenham – 03/10/18 – Mins played: 90Inter Milan – 06/11/18 – Mins played: 90Lyon – 19/02/19 – Mins played: 90Manchester United – 10/04/19 – Mins played: 90This doesn’t make for pretty reading especially when you see Suarez has played a full game in 15 of the 17 matches.Some of them are against top teams so it’s obviously difficult to score on their home turf but Suarez has had opportunities against lesser Champions League teams including BATE Borisov and Celtic. He will certainly be hoping Barca can do the job against United at the Camp Nou so he gets another opportunity to bag an away goal in the semi-finals, which could potentially be against Liverpool at Anfield!

Liverpool news: What Jurgen Klopp told Harry Wilson after he scored eye-catching free-kick vs Manchester United
It was not just Liverpool fans who were amazed when Harry Wilson scored a remarkable free-kick against Manchester United earlier this season – Jurgen Klopp was similarly delighted.Wilson’s eye-catching set-piece was netted at Old Trafford back in September, when Derby – the club with whom Wilson is spending the season on loan – beat the Red Devils in the Carabao Cup third round.

A sensational finish from Harry Wilson to level things up!Man Utd vs Derby is live on Sky Sports Main Event or follow here: https://t.co/F7S9gdjfL0 Follow all the Carabao Cup action here: https://t.co/3e9uA6oyYi https://t.co/gkc9V5A8dj— Sky Sports Football (@SkyFootball) September 25, 2018

Juan Mata opened the scoring for the hosts before Wilson equalised just before the hour mark, with Jack Marriott’s 85th minute strike then cancelled out by an injury-time strike from Marouane Fellaini.Derby prevailed on penalties to book their place in the fourth round, but the real winner that September night was Wilson – who became a household name thanks to his superb free-kick.He was lauded by Liverpool supporters all over the country and Wilson also caught the attention of his parent club’s manager – Klopp.Wilson – who has long been highly rated in Liverpool’s academy – told the Daily Mail: “He [Klopp] dropped me a text to tell me he’d watched it and he was delighted with the performance and the goal!” The Wales international has proven to be something of a prolific scorer of set-pieces this season, while his 12 goals mean Wilson tops Derby’s scoring charts for the campaign.And Wilson confirmed Klopp is keeping up with his progress in the Championship.He continued: “A couple of weeks ago there was another message saying, ‘Good result, good goal keep going’.getty1“When you get those texts, it is a massive boost. You know you aren’t forgotten.”Wilson is starring for Derby as they aim to win promotion back to the Premier League under Frank Lampard, though their attentions are focused on the FA Cup this weekend with a visit to Brighton on Saturday afternoon – which you can listen to LIVE on talkSPORT.

Arsenal news: Rennes boss slams UEFA’s ‘bizarre’ behaviour after they reduce Alexandre Lacazette ban
Rennes boss Julien Stephan has described UEFA’s behaviour as “bizarre” and hinted at a conspiracy from Europe’s governing body to help Arsenal through to the Europa League quarter-finals.Stephan is unhappy Gunners striker Alexandre Lacazette is available to face his side at the Emirates after his three-match ban was suddenly reduced on appeal on Tuesday.2The north London side were handed home advantage for the crucial second leg clash despite being drawn to play away.Rennes were due to play at the Emirates in the first leg but the tie was switched on UEFA orders because Chelsea and Arsenal are not allowed to play in the same city on the same night.French international Lacazette was hit with a three-match ban after being sent-off for elbowing BATE Borisov defender Aleksandar Filipovic in the last round.That would have ruled the 27-year-old out of both legs of their last-16 clash with the French minnows.But now he is free to play as Arsenal look to overturn a 3-1 deficit in front of their own supporters.2Speaking ahead of the game, Stephan said: The timing of the Lacazette decision was a surprise for us.“We didnt think that he would be included up until Monday evening when they decided to reduce his sanction to two games.We werent even aware that Arsenal had appealed Lacazettes ban because the red card was given about a month ago so its a bit strange that it has come just 48 hours before the game.But it is what it is and we dont have time to waste by debating things with UEFA.Its the second bizarre instance after the decision to invert the two legs.” He added: “Hopefully there wont be any more surprises and the referee on the night will be great.It changes a lot of things because with Lacazette available Arsenal can play in several different systems and now we have only 24 hours to prepare.Arsenal will obviously be much stronger than they were in the first leg and we know that they are used to winning big games at home.I dont know if we will thwart their plans but we want to score at least once here in London.
