Liverpool late show goes missing leaving Reds group stage work to do
LIVERPOOL, England -- For once, the late winner never came and Liverpool had to settle for a point. There will be some disappointment that they could not secure qualification from their Champions League group against Napoli at Anfield, but the truth is that this was the moment for a 1-1 draw if one had to happen at all.
Jurgen Klopp's side are still in Europe and can still top Group E with a win or even a draw against FC Salzburg on the final group stage matchday. And if last minute goals are being rationed then Liverpool fans would much rather one against Brighton on Saturday or against Everton in the Merseyside derby four days later in the Premier League.
