Liverpool rebounds with 5-1 win at Frankfurt in Champions League; Chelsea and Bayern also win big
Liverpool has bounced back from a losing streak with a 5-1 victory over Eintracht Frankfurt in the Champions League
Brentford v LiverpoolArne Slot's side looked a lot more like themselves in their 5-1 win at Eintracht Frankfurt in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday, but there is still a fragility in defense. With a few injuries cropping up and question marks over the form of star man Mohamed Salah there is still plenty of work for Slot to do get Liverpool back to being title contenders.
Rather than a high-stakes Champions League clash, this had the feeling of an early round EFL Cup game that Arne Slot was intent on taking seriously. Frankly, there are plenty of teams in the lower reaches of English football who would have been embarrassed to concede goals as basic as those handed to Hugo Ekitike and Cody Gakpo.
Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk has revealed he took the drastic action following the damaging 2-1 defeat by Liverpool in a bid to halt the Premier League champions worrying slide, which had seen them lose four matches on the bounce.
Josko Gvardiol has insisted the lack of noise around a potential Manchester City title challenge this season is acting as motivation for Pep Guardiola's squad in an exclusive interview with ESPN. Arsenal and Liverpool were the preseason favourites to be crowned champions after impressive summer transfer windows at both the Emirates and Anfield.
Liverpool added a fourth in the second half when Cody Gakpo tapped home from close range and, with the home team looking increasingly dispirited, Dominik Szoboszlai drilled in a fifth from long range. This was a stirring victory for Slot and his players, who earned a second win from their opening three Champions League games.
