Liverpool have scored against a passive Chelsea team 28 minutes into extra time.
It was another easy set piece for Liverpool. Van Dijk’s previous effort was ruled out, but this time we got no help from the refs.
It’s just too easy for Van Dijk, who once again barely had to jump to beat a few defenders to the ball. Petrovic had no chance.
Mauricio Pochettino’s team did not perform in that extra time period at all. That’s the reality.

WHAT A BUNCH OF -ANKERS. SAME OLD PLAYERS THOUSANDS OF CHANCES, MISSED THEM ALL. SO MANY TIMES SAID THAT THERE IS NO PASSION IN THE SQUAD, EXCEPT FOR ONE OR TWO SENIOR MEN. CHRIST !!!!! YOU WERE PLAYING A TEAM THAT WERE OUT ON THEIR FEET, AFTER A MID-WEEK GAME, HALF THEIR STARS OUT INJURED, AND REPLACED BY KIDS, BUT YOU STILL CAN’T WIN !!!!!! BLOODY EMBARASSING. TOTAL WASTE OF SPACES.
