"The full-time whistle was met with an outpouring of cheers among the travelling Kop, but it was the steely expression of Arne Slot that suggested any rumours of a crisis were wide of the mark. His demeanour was reflected by skipper Virgil van Dijk, who headed in Liverpool's second goal, as he congratulated his teammates on what seemed like a routine victory."
"Alexander Isak was joined up top by his strike partner Hugo Ekitike for the first time, but it was the latter who enjoyed a happy homecoming against his former side. Ekitike showed his composure as he was played through by Andy Robertson to fire his effort past Michael Zetterer to equalise for the Reds. He relishes the opportunity to shine in a Liverpool shirt and constantly proves to be a thorn in the side of defenders, while Isak finds his feet in this side."
Arne Slot's composed reaction reflected confidence after Liverpool's emphatic victory over Eintracht Frankfurt, with Virgil van Dijk heading in the second goal. Hugo Ekitike scored after being set up by Andy Robertson, forming a promising partnership with Alexander Isak. Vice-captain Andy Robertson provided stability at left back, Curtis Jones was comfortable in midfield without Ryan Gravenberch, and Conor Bradley energized the flank after replacing Jeremie Frimpong. Liverpool controlled the match by suffocating Frankfurt in their own half, and disciplined play punished a German side that had conceded ten goals in their previous three games.
