Liverpool can never do things easy, as was evident in the game against Leicester City. We had not won a single game in the month of September and had already been knocked out of the Carabao Cup by the Foxes.
This, however, was a different story than from midweek where we failed to take our chances. Mohamed Salah scored from a header in the first half from a sumptous Philippe Coutinho cross before the Brazilian scored from a magnificent free-kick.
Leicester looked down and out but then Simon Mignolet stepped up as he failed to punch a ball from a corner and Shinji Okazaki just about slotted the ball in after it came off Joe Gomez, just before half-time.
The Foxes continued to put us under pressure but substitute Daniel Sturridge played Jordan Henderson in a typical counter and our captain slotted in smartly to give us a 3-1 lead. That should have been enough to collect the three points but Jamie Vardy scored Leicester’s as Mignolet could only parry a hard Demerai Gray shot.
With the score being 3-2, Leicester were always in the game and Mignolet gave away a stupid penalty by trying to kick the ball instead of collecting it and hammering Vardy. Our goalie made amends by saving from #the spot but certainly, this was not a great performance by Mig and questions will be raised about our goalkeeping situation.
