Stop getting tight on Firmino in that corner. Stop it.

You'll only be made a fool of. The Liverpool attacker wants you to get sucked in because he knows all that you can do is foul him when he pulls off what is becoming a trademark pirouette. That is if you can get your hands on him of course. Look, it doesn't even matter if your surname is Soldado, you still can't do anything about it. https://twitter.com/SportsJOEdotie/status/728320607293734912 Liverpool's pre-season build-up continued over the weekend with a fine 2-0 win over AC Milan. Goals from Divock Origi and, yep, Roberto Firmino gave Jurgen Klopp's men a Champions Cup hangover and proved that Mamadou Sakho might not be all that crucial for the side after all. But among all the drama and goals, it was the Brazilian's piece of audacious trickery that stood out most. Firmino was in the corner, poor Ignazio Abate thought he had the situation under control. He didn't. Before he knew it, the ball was between his legs and the Italian was forced to throw the Liverpool man to the turf. It's all you can do.
