Liverpool Monterrey Photos

The best photos from Qatar as Liverpool reached the Club World Cup final by beating Monterrey 2-1 on Wednesday evening.

The Reds made a bright start to the game and went ahead in the 12th minute as Naby Keita received Mohamed Salah’s reverse ball and finished off an excellent Liverpool move.

However, their lead lasted just two minutes as Monterrey equalised through Rogelio Funes Mori, who turned the ball home after a solid save from Alisson.

It was an exciting end-to-end game for much of the ninety minutes, with Liverpool having to work hard to edge out the Mexican side.

Jurgen Klopp’s side continued to pile on the pressure and secured their place in the final with a winner in added time as substitutes Trent Alexander-Arnold and Roberto Firmino combined.

The Reds right-back put in an excellent low ball for Firmino, who made no mistake with a deft finish to give Liverpool victory.

Liverpool will take on Brazilian side Flamengo in the Club World Cup final on Saturday afternoon as they look to win the competition for the first time in the club’s history.
