Hertha Berlin 0-3 Liverpool
Pre-Season Friendly, Olympiastadion
July 29, 2017
Goals
Solanke 15′ (assist – Lallana)
Wijnaldum 38′ (assist – Mane)
Salah 60′ (assist – Coutinho)
As they continue their pre-season preparations, Liverpool headed to Berlin to take on Pal Dardai’s side in a friendly designed to mark the two clubs’ 125th anniversaries.
Having taken a 30-man squad to Germany, Klopp only named 22 players in his group for Saturday’s clash, with this dropping further as Divock Origi suffered a minor injury during warmup.
This saw Dominic Solanke join the in-demand Philippe Coutinho and a returning Sadio Mane in Klopp’s forward line, with the latter making his first appearance since April.
With Mane back in the side, Liverpool will have been confident of vanquishing their Bundesliga opposition, and they certainly made light work of Hertha.
- Mane and Can return to Klopp’s starting lineup
- Solanke scores second goal of pre-season on 15 minutes
- Wijnaldum nets away from home after great play from Solanke
- Salah adds another following lofted pass from Coutinho
- Reds seal fourth win of pre-season as Germany tour begins
Lining up in Klopp’s customary 4-3-3 formation, the Reds dominated from the first whistle in Berlin, with Emre Can presiding over the game in the No. 6 role on his return to action.
The German slid a fine ball through for the onrushing Alberto Moreno on the quarter-hour mark, but the left-back’s low cross along the six-yard box eluded Liverpool’s forwards.
