This game is very important defining who will become the world’s champions. This is a second chance for Liverpool to win the Champions League after losing last year 3-1 to Real Madrid

First half,

You wont believe me if I told you that Liverpool was awarded a penalty at the 27th second. It was awarded a penalty because Liverpools defender Van Dijk tried to cross the ball to Mohammed Salah so he could score but Moussa Sissoko blocked the cross with his hand. Unfortunately Mohammed Salah scored a penalty kicking the ball to the bottom right.

Well after that Liverpool still tried its best creating chances and even forcing Tottenham to pull back it’s forward players to help them with defense which gives them almost no chances to score. Surprisingly the pressure that Liverpool was putting on Tottenham wasn’t enough to keep the South Korean superstar Son Heung Min from dribbling past the entire defense and shooting towards the goal. His shot was unfortunately saved by Alisson Becker. For the rest of the first half Tottenham made no more chances mostly keeping the ball in the midfield area.

One of Tottenham’s best chance to score in the second half was when Harry Kane crossed the ball to Eriksen in the 53rd minute which he attempted to score with a volley but he was just a bit of target. After that a few corners where awarded for both teams but none where close to scoring unfortunately.
