On Monday, in a friendly match, Liverpool faced Greuther Fürth, a second-division German club. Trailing by three goals, the Reds fought back to secure a draw (4-4) late in the game.
During the match held at the Sportpark Ronhof Thomas Sommer in Fürth, Jürgen Klopp’s players took the lead with a 3-1 advantage after 59 minutes of play. Luis Diaz opened the scoring for the Reds (22nd minute), followed by Julian Green’s equalizer (47th minute). The Uruguayan striker Darwin Nunez then scored an impressive brace (50th and 59th minutes) to put Liverpool on track for victory.
However, the Reds experienced a completely unexpected turnaround, as their modest opponents scored three goals in just 10 minutes (67th, 74th, and 77th minutes). Trailing 4-3, the Merseyside team seemed destined for an embarrassing defeat. But that was not the end of the story, as Mohamed Salah stepped up to preserve his team’s honor late in the match.
The Egyptian international scored the equalizer in the 89th minute. The final score was 4-4. A minor setback that should be put into perspective at this stage of the preparation. It is worth noting that Liverpool had previously won their first friendly match against Karlsruher, another second-division German club, with a score of 4-2.
