Chptr 161s.


Sean and his team-mates are still in the dressing room of the Liverpool team.


They are ready for the game which will start soon.


They have also received additional instructions from the boss and are staying on the pitch only.


Not long after, the players also entered the field, the audience immediately cheered.


The game they are looking forward to will start soon.


That way, kick also immediately started by the Liverpool players.


The match on the field officially began.


Liverpool players immediately control the ball according to how they play.


They are not in a hurry, they want to see how the response is done by the opposing team or Porto team.


If they press aggressively then Liverpool will not lose and will play passes with a fast tempo to compete in terms of stamina.


But in fact, the opposing players or Porto just play by waiting.


The Liverpool players eventually casually chose to play possession and tried to pull them forward and out of their own territory.


The possession of the ball carried out by Liverpool also involves their goalkeeper so that the opposing players are really interested in advancing.


Entering the 7th minute, Robertson got a pass from Allison and Robertson dribbled until the halfway line.


When he reached the halfway line, Robertson returned the ball to Virgil who was still in the defensive area.


The Porto player who was originally going to press Robertson was finally down again to his territory.


The game continued like this, and occasionally Liverpool also lost the ball due to a wrong pass.


Entering the 23rd minute, Porto already had a total of 3 shots, 1 on target and 2 others still deviated from the goal guarded by Allison.


As for Liverpool until this 23rd minute, they had a total of 2 shots.


And only 1 is on target and the rest just off the mark.


Even so, Liverpool excelled in possession, but Porto took advantage of it with a counter-attack so as to have a total shot over 1 from Liverpool.


Entering the 31st minute, Declan Rice managed to stop the opposing player who would counterattack.


He did a very clean tackle and it was right about the ball.


The Porto player who was tackled protested that he was tackled on his leg, but the match continued.


The referee also ignored protests from the Porto player.


Declan Rice who managed to get the ball directly sent the ball to the right side on Mbappe.


Mbappe also did the action, he dribbled slowly while looking at his colleagues.


Trent, who is on one side with Mbappe, also approached to help.


While Sean had approached and entered the penalty box accompanied Felix.


Florian and Aurelien also advanced further into the opposing defense territory.


Mbappe made a pass on Aurelien and he ran straight into the box.


Aurelien received the ball and passed it back to Trent, Porto's player swiftly pressed to Trent, but Trent without stopping the ball immediately made a long pass to Robertson on the other side who had advanced.


The opposing player also reacted immediately and would close the pass room for Robertson but the player was 2 steps late.


Robertson had already sent a pass into the penalty box with a flat curling pass.


Sean who was near the first post or right side post of the goalkeeper tried to pick up the ball and will kick it.


But it's true that Sean's assumption that he will not be easy to use because he is directly approached by the opposing player who guards him.


Sean moved his left foot and swung directly towards the goal.


The ball came right with a swing of Sean's left foot forward.


That way the ball also finally managed to be shot by Sean, but Sean had to fall after because the pedestal was not balanced due to the push from the back by the opposing player who guarded it.


Sean did not care about himself falling, he immediately looked to his right side whether the ball he shot entered or not.


When looking to the right, he saw the goalkeeper had fallen but the goalkeeper looked frustrated, Sean then looked at the goal and found the ball was already lodged in it.


Sean then got up and immediately ran towards the Liverpool spectators who were away.


He performed his celebration by turning his back on the audience then closed his eyes and raised both fingers up to a height.


It turns out that the Sean goal happened despite being shot by Sean, the opposing goalkeeper had brushed it off but the ball that succeeded in the tepis hit the goalpost and finally turned in the direction of the goal.


Mbappe and Felix who were in the penalty box also immediately ran towards Sean who had done celebration.


The boss at the top of the field has also celebrated.


Soon the game started back.


The game becomes more exciting.


After the goal by Sean, Porto played more out.


They don't want to lose, let alone play as hosts.


But of course Liverpool also serve this, they do aggressive pressing to make opposing players pass quickly and hope wrong pass.


The game continues with the ball in midfield.


But even so, the total shots from both teams also increased.


Entering the 41st minute, Liverpool attack again, Florian managed to snatch the ball from the opposing players in his territory.


He immediately dribbled and tried to get into the box, but he was immediately pulled off his shirt and Florian also fell.


The referee who saw clearly this immediately gave a yellow card and awarded a free kick to Liverpool.


When Trent is about to take the free kick, Sean approaches and tries to retrieve it.


But Trent did not give it because he wanted to shoot directly, eventually Sean relented and lined up in the penalty box with other players hoping for a second ball.


After the referee blew the whistle, Trent made a Free kick shot.


And it's true that the ball curls up and over the posse of Porto players, when Liverpool players think it's going to be a goal, the ball went uphill and finally only ended up as a corner because the ball did not even hit the crossbar.


The players are back.


Entering the 43rd minute, Porto launched a quick counterattack.


They made a breakthrough pass through the middle of Liverpool.


Where is the gap between Virgil and Konate, and sure enough this is what the boss instructed to focus more on the middle and side of Trent.


Virgil and Konate ran to try to take the ball, but they did not expect their attackers to run after them.


The Porto attacker who got ahead of Virgil and Konate was already closer to the ball, Allison as a goalkeeper also doubts whether forward or not.


Eventually he chose to go forward to close the firing gap of the Porto attacker.


Allison is ready.


The attacker dribbles slightly until he is on the penalty box line, then he takes a swipe and shoots.


Allison also immediately moved, but who would have thought it was just a trick, the opponent attacker immediately shot in the opposite direction from the action Allison.


The ball finally entered the goal and became the equalizer for Porto.
