Liverpool manager addresses Luis Diaz’s kidnapped father and goal in 1-1 game against Luton Town
Liverpool can secure progress to the knockout stages of the Europa League if they achieve a fourth straight win in Group E this evening.
Jurgen Klopp’s side have beaten Toulouse, LASK and Union Saint Gilloise and travel to face the French side in the return fixture.
Toulouse have struggled domestically this season and go into the match 14th in Ligue 1, having managed just two wins in 11 matches, but they are second in the Group E with four points.
When the sides met at Anfield, Darwin Nunez starred and Mohamed Salah netted off the bench in a 5-1 hammering, which included Wataru Endo’s first goal for the club. While the temptation for Klopp may be to rotate once more, getting progression wrapped up early would leave two matches where more changes can be made and opportunities handed to fringe players.

GOAL! Toulouse 3-1 Liverpool
74’ GOAL! Magri restores Toulouse’s two-goal advantage immediately!
He had only just come on but has netted his fourth goal of the club, against Liverpool to make it 2-1.
That was a great response!

GOAL! Toulouse 2-1 Liverpool
73’ GOAL! Liverpool have a goal back but it’s extraordinary!
The ball is headed into the box from Gomez and Cásseres is just in completely the wrong position, he takes his eye off the ball which hits his shoulder and goes into the back of the net!
That was slightly ridiculous and a poor lapse in judgement from Toulouse but the Reds will not care one bit!

Toulouse 2-0 Liverpool
70’ Toulouse are just too quick to charge down anything and keep Liverpool from mounting key attacks into the box.
They are having to resort to crosses from wide, but those haven’t yet found the mark.

Toulouse 2-0 Liverpool
68’ Liverpool are trying to find a way back in this game, Mac Allister finds Diaz with a long ball, but his cross towards Salah is overhit and they haven’t quite found their footing in this second half.

Toulouse 2-0 Liverpool
66’ Toulouse have it in the back of the net again! But Donnum is offside in the build up, that’s the second goal they have had ruled out.
It is hard to think this is the same team that were dealt a hammering at Anfield.

Toulouse 2-0 Liverpool
65’ Liverpool are trying to find a way back into this game here, but Toulouse are putting all their players behind the ball and it is hard for the players in red to find a way through.

Toulouse 2-0 Liverpool
62’ Kelleher had to be alert there to prevent a third, the ball came in from the right but it was too close to the Liveprool goalkeeper who was able to gather.

GOAL! Toulouse 2-0 Liverpool
58’ GOAL! Toulouse have another, that one will not be ruled out, and that was a great goal!
Dalinga has stayed alert, took a touch in the box before firing past Kelleher.
That was a great finish and Liverpool are in trouble here.
