Liverpool’s first two goals against Sevilla were eerily similar.
Well, there were differences, but it really was remarkable how Liverpool managed to score pretty much the exact same goal twice against the La Liga outfit in the Champions League on Tuesday night.
The Reds opened the scoring just two minutes into the game.
Phillippe Coutinho floated in a beautiful corner kick from the right hand side, Georginio Wijnaldum flicked it on at the near post and Roberto Firmino smashed it into the net on the far post with his boot.

20 minutes later, Liverpool got themselves another corner from the right side.
Coutinho stepped up and delivered a beautiful cross, Firmino got a near post flick-on that fell straight into the path of Sadio Mane who scored a wonderful diving header at the far post into the other corner of the net.

The method of finishing was different, there was a different man’s name on the scoresheet, but other than that, the goals were very similar.
We weren’t the only ones who noticed it either.

The same goal from two corners. Where is the defending? Making it easy for them.
