Latest Liverpool news: Grujic has a mixed game against Bayern Munich

Marko Grujic returned to Hertha Berlin for a second season on loan at the Bundesliga club. The 23-year-old had a great season with the club last time around but had injury problems.

Grujic was one of the best in the Bundesliga and started this season in great fashion as he scored against Bayern Munich in the first game.

Hertha were leading 2-1 as they came from behind. Robert Lewandowski opened the scoring for the home side before Dodi Lukebakio equalised.

Grujic did well to receive a chipped pass before sliding past Manuel Neuer to slot it into the net to give Berlin the lead.

Not the best second half for Grujic

The Serbian had a rash moment in the second half when he hauled Lewandowski down in the box.

VAR led to a penalty being awarded for the home side. Lewandowski bagged his brace by scoring from the spot. Bayern pushed on for the winner but Hertha held on for a valuable point.

Grujic could have a huge role to play for Liverpool next season but he has to kick on with Hertha at the moment.

The 23-year-old has always impressed on his loan spells, and it will be interesting to see how the Serb performs this season.

Grujic needs to stay injury-free to develop further and hopefully, he returns to the Reds as a world-class midfielder.
